The aim of the civil engineer is to desing and build functional
functional structures by ensuring ground safety economic conditions.
Field and design conditions are important in applicatins. Ground
conditions are important during and after construction of the
building. The options that can be applied include improvement and
strengthening of the ground. The first study to be carried out by the
civil engineer on problematic soils reaches the desing criteria
prescribed by different methods. While doing this, the superstructure
must be reliable, functional and economical. Ground improvement
can be defined as the improvement of certain properties of soils by
using different physical, chemical or biological methods fort he
intended application. Terms such as reclamation, stabilization and
modification are also used instead of improving soils. Correction of
the existing ground or relocation of the project is not very costly and
logical. In addition, the option of soil improveent and strengthening
emerges as the most logical and suitabl solution, since it is costly to
delicer the building loads to very deep solid grounds with the deep
foundation application which is atraditilonal solution
method.Although the impertance given to soil improvement and
strengthening has increased due to rapid urbanization the rapid
reduction of suitable residential areas, high land costs, protecting the
security of neighboring and construction on soils that have poor
bearing capacity ort problematic in terms of settlement, especially
due to the difficulty of living in large cities and industrial areas and
high costs has made it compulsory.The aim here is to increase the
bearing capacity of weak soils to reduce the permeability and to
accelerate the consolidation by reducing the working ot the groun as
a whole and the settlement of the ground. Preloding and Bored pile
applecations have been made in the West park area built by the sea in
Rize Fener Mahallesi. Here, the infastructure of the park wich was
built on the sea, filled with large filing materials and corrected with
thinner filling materials and preloaded for a period of time (3-5
months). Afterwards, Bored pile application is applied as
reinforcement to the ground and the ground here is improved and
strengthened. The purpose of this study is to determine the methods
used in the improvement and strengthening of the western park floor
and to know the precautions for the ground and the western park
from the damages that may arise in the future.
