Background of research
It forces the water draining away, and promotes
the consolidation
lateral flow upheaval of the ground
Fill construction
Field is constricted
Vacuum consolidation
It is possible to support rapid construction
It can suppress lateral flow and upheaval of the ground
However, the ground behavior is not clarified enough, and the design and the site management depend very on the experienced technique.

Reason:
→ It is thought that drainage was promoted in field
when the pump stopped, while undrained boundary is
set in analysis.

Settlement of the center field
As a whole, a similar tendency is shown.
However, the value of analysis exceeds the value of field as time passes.

Reason: Pore pressure (GL-3.50m) ; analysis < field (Fig.12Fig.12) → In analysis, vacuum pressure propagation was overestimated compared with field.
