摘要
In the last decade,the construction of communication routes has intensified globally.As a result,many case studies have emerged related to the presence of saturated clayey soils in the foundation ground.In order to speed up the execution of highways and railways in a safely manner,the designers use different methods for improving soft clays in terms of compressibility.The present paper aims to evaluate the efficiency of an electrochemical method used for the dewatering of a soft montmorillonite clay subgrade.The effects on the consolidation process are analyzed for the final conclusions.The advantages of the method are briefly discussed,and some potential areas for scientific research are proposed.
