3.2 Lightweight and Structural Fills A method that allows construction of relatively light structures on very soft base soil is to use either a lightweight fill or a carefully placed structural fill onto which the foundation is placed. Lightweight fills may use expanded shale, certain industrial slags,and fly ash.These 淘 materials may be mixed with sand and/or gravel to produce a fill of the desired density and durability. EPS (expanded polystyrenc)fill can be used for embankment in highway engineering. 超

3.3 Compaction Compaction is economical method of improving the bearing capacity of site soils. It may be accomplished by excavating to some depth,then carefully backfilling in controlled lift thickness,each of which is compacted with the appropriate compaction equipment. The backfill soil may be the excavated soil dried (or wetted)as necessary,possibly mixed with an admixture such as cement or lime,with or without fly ash or sand filler;or it may be imported soil from a nearby borrow pit. 超
