Abstract

In the last decade, the construction of communication routes has intensified globally. As a result, many case studies have emerged related to the presence of saturated clayey soils in the foundation ground. In order to speed up the execution of highways and railways in a safely manner, the designers use different methods for improving soft clays in terms of compressibility.The present paper aims to evaluate the efficiency of an electrochemical method used for the dewatering of a soft montmorillonite clay subgrade. The effects on the consolidation process are analyzed for the final conclusions. The advantages of the method are briefly discussed, and some potential areas for scientific research are proposed.
