Summary
Deep Soil Mixing(DSM)Soil, Binder and mechanical mixing tools.
Wide range of soils; sand, silt, clay, organic soils and peat.
Wide range of conventional and novel binders; Cement, Lime, Slag, Fly Ash.
Different construction strategies in different parts of the world.
Increased strength, Decreased compressibility and permeability.
Large number of variables in wide range and complex interaction.

Factors affecting Strength
SN Influencing factors Details
1. Soil Soil type, Grain size distribution, Soil water content, Atterberg limits, Organic matter content
2. Binder Binder dosage, Binder chemical composition
3. Mixing Conditions Water: binder ratio, Mixing tool type, Mixing time, Mixing speed
4. Curing Conditions Curing time, Curing temperature, Curing stress
5. Sampling and testing Conditions

Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs)Hidden units are flexible non-linear functions e.g. hyperbolic tangent.Weights and Biases determined through iterative ‘training’ process.Multiple non-linear regression analysis.Minimization of an error function using Bayesian approach.The problem of over-fitting is monitored by using a ‘test set’.

SummaryLarge number of variables in wide range and complex interaction. Data collection and collation utilizes the existing data and facilitates investigation of potential correlations.
ANNs are feasible alternatives to soil mix technology data mining.
• Known trends emulated and reasonable predictions of strength obtained. • Predictions accompanied by error bars which quantify the uncertainty of fitting. • Developed models only valid for conditions found in the dataset (e.g. clay soil type)
Ongoing work to make database well populated. Experimental validation.
