    This document describes a new patented stone column ground improvement system that uses a non-vibration method. The system consists of an epicyclic gearbox, rotary head, stone hopper, and outer drilling assembly. It can build complete stone columns without introducing voids and does not require high pressure water, air, or predrilling. This makes the system faster and more cost effective to use compared to traditional vibration-based stone column methods.

    GROUND IMPROVEMENT SYSTEM

    MAIN COMPONENTS PATENTED TECHNOLOGY

    The new ground improvement method is


    > vibration free so it can be used immediately
    EPICYLIC GEARBOX FOR next to sensitive sites or neighbouring buildings
    INNER FEED ASSEMBLY
    > Less power required

    > Fuel savings


    ROTARY HEAD (DRIVES
    OUTER DRILLING ASSEMBLY)
    > Only two plant items required

    > Fast to set up


    STONE HOPPER

    No high pressure water or air injection


    >
    required therefore less mess

    OUTER DRILLING ASSEMBLY


    > Bottom feed – can be used in collapsing soils

    Binder can be introduced to provide rigid


    > inclusions in the soil – no expensive concrete
    delivery trucks or pumps required

    No creation of liquefaction and possible
