Soil Improvement New Concept

Prestressed soil is a complex concept that must be researched in the field of civil geotechnical engineering about improving the resistance of soil to the various stresses that it will have to undergo by improving its mechanical properties, especially when it is subjected to loads [ 1] and causes a safety hazard. Thus, the principle of prestressed soil is to create an initial mechanism that allows it to resist under future stresses indefinitely without change.
