HVDM Series of Inventions
High Vacuum Densification Method(HVDM)
![Page 7: Miraculous Solution to Asia Pacific Soft Ground Improvement](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042601/54654895af7959871b8b580e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Introduction of HVDM
HVDM is a fast soft soil improvement method, which combines efforts of vacuum drainage and dynamic compaction in designated cycles.
It leads the jobsite to be dewatered, densified and improved fast. The post-treatment (differential) settlement is mitigated and bearing capacity is improved.

Three Breakthroughs of Pressure Gradient
• Extend the applicable scopes of vacuum well drainage method for impermeable soils.
• Challenge the common sense: "dynamic compaction method is not applicable for saturated soft soil".
• Expedite the pore pressure dissipation and save the schedule from 3-4 weeks to 5-10 days, for a cycle.

Attractions of HVDM
Save 30% in cost compared to conventional methods, leading to a total saving of US$5 billion.
Shorten the construction period to 25-30 days via the pressure gradient, well less than the time required by conventional methods.
Data acquisition throughout the treatment. Control the thickness of hard shell and treat sections independently, which meet the bearing capacity and settlement requirements.
HVDM is a mechanical process, which adds no additions into the soil and protects the environments.

Green & patent technology
• Pure mechanical process, no chemical additives.
• Already saved 60-70 million tons of cement, reducing 60-70 million tons CO2 emission.
• HVDM series already are patented in 20 countries, e.g. China, US, Australia, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, UAE, South Africa, Egypt etc..

For shallow soft soil , HVDM is used to form a over-consolidated shell.
For deep soft soil , preloading is used to consolidate the deep soil, and HVDM is then used to form a hard shell at the subsurface.
For jobsite requiring high bearing capacity , HVDM is used to increase bearing capacity. Stone columns are installed to form a composite foundation..
