  • High Production
  • Minimal Soil Spoils
  • Engineered System
  • On Board Computer Monitering
  • Verification Testing 

Vibratory stone columns (VSC) are compacted columns of aggregate that are installed through existing soils to improve the geotechnical properties of the soil matrix. The columns consist of a series of vertical lifts of compacted aggregate from a pre-determined depth up to the ground surface. They are installed utilizing a specialized vibratory probe called a "vibroflot". This vibroflot is utilized to create a bore hole down to a specific depth, aggregate is then introduced, and the vibroflot compacts the rock. The aggregate introduction / compaction process repeats until the dense column of rock is built up to the ground surface. Vibratory Stone Columns (Aggregate Piers) have successfully been used to increase bearing capacity, reduce settlement, provide slope stabilization, and mitigate liquefaction and is currently one of the most commonly used ground improvement systems in the world today.
