TL;DR: In this article, the concepts of rigid inclusions, how they differ with piles, and presenting of case studies of very deep applications of rigid-inclusions are discussed. But they do not discuss how to distinguish where ground improvement ends and deep piled foundations commence.

TL;DR: In this article, a case study on a design and build turnkey project using a displacement filling method whereby the design methodology and construction technique of displacement filling in Lumut will be discussed to highlight the steps undertaken to ensure the effectiveness of this method and its overall economic advantages.
Abstract: This case study is on a design and build turnkey project using a displacement filling method whereby the design methodology and construction technique of displacement filling in Lumut will be discussed to highlight the steps undertaken to ensure the effectiveness of this method and its overall economic advantages. A new method of extracting geotechnical parameters called Iternative Technique (IT) used to obtain critical parameters for slope stability analysis will be introduced. Some aspects and observations of rock bund construction on soft soil will also be explained. Apart from that, measures taken as part of the environmental management plan due to the usage of the displacement filling method will also be elaborated. The author wishes to acknowledge the support of M.N. Rajah, Managing Director of Asbil Engineering & Construction, with this study. This paper first appeared in the WODCON XVI Proceedings and is reprinted with permission.
