Coastal Australia is under ever increasing pressure from rapid population growth which requires continual capital investment in civil infrastructure, such as road and rail links and large buildings. Many regions have soft compressible clays that present challenges for infrastructure design and construction. The use of vacuum preloading, together with vertical drains for soft soil stabilisation, can reduce construction and maintenance costs, while the increased soil strength will enhance the stability of infrastructure. This project will deliver design guidelines and specifications of enhanced vacuum consolidation application, as well as improving industrial competitiveness and export earnings through increased technology transfer.

澳大利亚沿海地区正面临着人口快速增长的压力，这需要对民用基础设施进行持续的资本投资，如公路和铁路连接以及大型建筑。许多地区都有柔软的可压缩粘土，这对基础设施设计和施工提出了挑战。采用真空预压和垂直排水管加固软土，可以降低建筑和维护成本，而增加的土壤强度将提高基础设施的稳定性。该项目将提供增强真空固结应用的设计准则和规格，并通过增加技术转让提高工业竞争力和出口收入。
