[0002] Crushed stone piles are an engineering structure used for reinforcing soft soil in highways. After drilling holes in the soft foundation through methods such as vibration, impact, or water jetting, crushed stone or pebbles are squeezed into the holes to form a dense pile body. Together with the soil between the piles, they enhance the bearing capacity of the foundation. They are mainly used in highway projects where there is a lack of high-quality sand sources or where environmental protection requirements are high. They are particularly effective in the southeastern coastal areas where soft soil is widely distributed.
