摘要

In the quest for sustainable geotechnical engineering solutions, this study delves into the evaluation of rigid inclusion techniques for soil stabilization, employing the BS 8006 design method. Drawing upon data from six distinct case studies, we scrutinize the method's efficacy in predicting the load transfer mechanisms, which are fundamental to the performance of rigid inclusions. The BS 8006 method, often preferred for its clarity, has garnered attention for its capacity to provide reliable estimations of rigid inclusion efficiency. However, it becomes evident through this assessment that the existing design methodologies harbor uncertainties, with some tending to either overestimate or underestimate the load transfer mechanisms when compared to real-world measurements. A notable revelation from our analysis is the BS 8006 design method's superiority in predicting rigid inclusion efficiency in many instances. Despite this achievement, our study underscores the significance of considering factors such as load transfer platform cohesion to refine the accuracy of rigid inclusion system design. We conclude that rigid inclusions present an environmentally sustainable and cost-effective approach to soil stabilization. As we move forward, it is imperative to address the limitations in the BS 8006 methodology, emphasizing the importance of integrating load transfer platform cohesion into the estimation of load transfer mechanisms. Future research endeavors may benefit from harnessing artificial intelligence to identify critical variables for incorporation into the BS design method, promising advancements in geotechnical engineering and sustainable infrastructure practices.
