Features: The Wuping Dam in Yunnan is currently the highest dam built on soft soil foundation both domestically and internationally. This book meticulously records the invaluable engineering experience of constructing a dam on soft soil foundation. It systematically introduces an overview of the Wuping Project, the engineering geological conditions, as well as the digital and physical model demonstrations for the vibro-flotation gravel pile replacement reinforcement scheme for soft foundation treatment. The book also provides detailed technical data on the vibro-flotation gravel pile reinforcement, particularly the gravel pile density tests, single-pile static load tests, heavy penetration tests, and large-scale load tests on the composite foundation after reinforcement. These provide comprehensive and reliable data for evaluating the effectiveness of vibro-flotation reinforcement on soft soil foundations, enriching the technical knowledge of vibro-flotation soft soil foundation reinforcement, and offering a highly valuable reference model for soft foundation dam construction technology in China. This book can serve as a reference for water conservancy and hydropower technicians and is also suitable for reading by professionals in related fields.
