Deep vibro compaction<\/strong> and vibro replacement<\/strong> methods are mainly to increase the strength of granular soils as well as unfavorable soil conditions. They are also beneficial for the improvement of deformation characteristics of the same type of soil. These ground improvement techniques work by enhancing the bearing capacity of the weak layer. Then, they utilize the benefit of the improved resistance. Ergo, this results in a transition between deep foundation<\/strong> and soil stabilization<\/strong>. This way, the transition ensures a structural support below or on the improved ground surface both safety and economy wise.<\/p>\n As OMS team, we support our customers by recommending the best ground (<\/a>soil <\/a>) improvement equipment<\/a><\/strong> solutions. Vibro compaction<\/strong> and vibro replacement (stone columns) <\/strong>as well as vertical drain (wick drain)<\/a> equipment<\/strong> of OMS have proved themselves in the global market from Europe to Middle East, South East Asia and America continent.<\/p>\n This section introduces a new content block within the OMS Ground Improvement Techniques page layout. The structure is designed to continue presenting technical information related to soil improvement systems, engineering applications, and OMS equipment solutions.<\/p>\n The layout separates technical explanations and visual project materials into a two-column presentation format for better readability and project visualization.<\/p>\n This section of the OMS Ground Improvement Techniques page is primarily structured as a visual and technical presentation area. It combines project galleries, engineering visuals, and explanatory technical text blocks to present OMS soil improvement solutions in a more organized layout format.<\/p>\n The page structure includes:<\/p>\n The galleries displayed in this section include images related to:<\/p>\n The technical text blocks within these layouts explain the operational principles of:<\/p>\n OMS uses this page structure to visually support engineering explanations and demonstrate how different configurations are applied across varying soil conditions and project requirements.<\/p>\n OMS Pile Driving Equipment GmbH. provides a large selection of ground improvement equipment<\/strong>: \u201cvibro compaction\u201d<\/strong>, \u201cvibro replacement\u201d<\/strong> and \u201cvertical drain\u201d<\/strong>. As effective as our products are, choosing the correct equipment for your project might be a challenge. However, our experts on ground engineering can help you to decide on the best equipment for your project.<\/p>\n Today, the social and industrial growth has increased the importance of ground engineering. In fact, the profession plays a crucial role in projects such as power stations or the expansion of infrastructure systems like harbors and airports. Therefore, it is good to consult to an expert before deciding on the method of ground improvement.<\/p>\n One of the Ground improvement techniques <\/strong>vibro compaction is mostly suitable for fine granular soils with seismic risk. For this reason, experts suggest for land reclamation projects to decrease the risk of liquefaction. Furthermore, the technique is useful for the densification of sand-like soils on site through an OMS Vibroflotation prob<\/strong>. Due to the concurrent impact of saturation and vibration, loose sand particles changes into a more compact state. As a result, lateral confining pressure of the sand mass rises.<\/p>\n Vibro compaction top feed technique<\/strong><\/a> is convenient for medium to coarse-grained sand with silt content. Cohesive soils with silt and clay does not respond to vibratory compaction. The illustration below explains the operation:<\/p>\n This section of the OMS Ground Improvement Techniques page is primarily structured as a visual and technical presentation area.

Each prob suspends from the same crane. Land reclamation projects that require 20 – 25 m depth uses this configuration. The quality of compaction\/stone column is controllable with a data logger supplied by OMS. Thence, the depth, compaction rate, time-related compaction and withdrawals can be measured and monitored. The data logger is also able to measure the gravel volume.<\/p>\n You can watch the OMS Vibro Compaction Tandem Free Hanging Ground Improvement video here:<\/p>\n OMS Vibro Compaction Video<\/a><\/p>\n The gallery section below the video contains project visuals related to tandem vibro compaction operations and OMS vibroflotation applications. These images demonstrate field operations, equipment configurations, and ground improvement processes used in large-scale soil stabilization projects.<\/p>\n Following the gallery, the page transitions into another technical explanation section introducing additional OMS ground improvement configurations and operational methods.<\/p>\n The single free hanging vibroflotation probe<\/strong> consists of the same interchangeable parts as Tandem. The depth of compaction<\/strong>\u00a0can be deeper. Correspondingly, medium to small scale projects can be executed with a single free hanging system. Compared to the Tandem system<\/strong>, crane capacity of the vibroflotation probe<\/strong> is slightly smaller. Similarly to Tandem, the quality of compaction <\/strong>can be monitored with a \u201cdata logger\u201d<\/strong> so that, depth, compaction rate, time-related compaction and withdrawals as well as gravel volume can be measured and monitored.<\/p>\n The gallery section above contains project visuals related to OMS single free hanging vibroflotation and ground improvement applications. These images demonstrate various field operations, equipment configurations, and soil stabilization projects performed using OMS vibro compaction systems.<\/p>\n After the gallery section, the page continues with another technical content block focused on additional ground improvement techniques and vibro replacement applications. The following sections introduce engineering details, operational methods, and visual illustrations related to OMS bottom feed stone column systems and vibro replacement technologies.<\/p>\n Vibro replacement stone column<\/strong> is a system where vertical columns that made out of compacted gravels are placed into the soil. This technique builds load-bearing columns and\u00a0 these columns are made out of gravels or crushed stones in cohesive soil and granular soil with high fines content.<\/p>\n Vibro replacement columns are beneficial for enhancing wide range of soil types. They can improve very soft clays and peat to materials suitable for the vibro compaction method. The equipment of the vibro replacement method is identical to the one in the vibro compaction method. However, vibro displacement equipment is slightly different.<\/p>\n As for the operation of stone\/gravel columns, <\/strong>there are two methods: the top feed and the bottom feed. The latter operation will be issued in this part. \u201cThe bottom feed\u201d<\/strong><\/a> process feeds gravels from the end of the prob with pressurized air. In order to achieve an optimum performance, OMS has developed the vibroflotation probe and gravel hooper with the pressure chamber. Additionally, these OMS vibroflotation probes can mount on an existing drill rig or leader, crane or an excavator.<\/p>\n The illustrations above demonstrate the OMS Bottom Feed Vibroflotation Ground Improvement Technique used in vibro replacement and stone column applications. These technical drawings visually explain how gravel or crushed stone material is delivered through the vibroflotation probe using pressurized air during the bottom feed process.<\/p>\n The OMS bottom feed system is specifically designed for improving weak and cohesive soils by creating compacted stone columns that increase soil bearing capacity and reduce settlement risks. The illustrations show the operational workflow, probe positioning, gravel feeding mechanism, and soil improvement process used in large-scale infrastructure and foundation projects.<\/p>\n For companies or contractors requiring technical consultation regarding ground improvement methods, OMS provides direct engineering support and project-specific equipment recommendations.<\/p>\n The following section continues with additional OMS ground improvement configurations and field application examples related to vibro replacement and bottom feed systems.<\/p>\n The OMS vibroflotation probe (bottom feed system) with gravel hooper can mount on an existing drill rig or a leader. For this action, a supervisor from the OMS technical team is needed. \u00a0This configuration is useful, because the drill rig or leader equipped with a pull-down system. This system allows an additional pull-down pressure during compaction and penetration.<\/p>\n The OMS vibroflotation probe<\/strong> (bottom feed system)<\/strong><\/a> with a gravel hooper. The system is suspends from a crane. The crane capacity must be able to carry the suspended weights in order for the configuration to work.<\/p>\n Thermal Power Plant Project With OMS Vibroflot<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n The gallery section above contains visuals from OMS bottom feed ground improvement and vibro replacement applications. These project images showcase real field operations involving stone column installation, vibroflotation probes, crane suspended systems, and soil stabilization works performed using OMS technologies.<\/p>\n The images demonstrate how OMS bottom feed systems operate under different project conditions and highlight the application of vibro replacement techniques in infrastructure and foundation engineering projects worldwide.<\/p>\n Following the gallery section, the page transitions into another technical content block introducing additional OMS ground improvement configurations and operational details related to excavator mounted and bottom feed vibroflotation systems.<\/p>\n The ground improvement techniques<\/strong> are easier to mount on a customers\u2019 excavator. In any case, the help of OMS supervision team is needed. Also, it is simpler to operate and cost friendly. However, stone columns comes with limited depth. Excavator selection is crucial in this configuration.<\/p>\n The gallery section above contains visuals related to OMS excavator mounted bottom feed ground improvement systems and vibro replacement applications. These images demonstrate different field configurations, equipment setups, and stone column installation projects carried out using OMS vibroflotation technologies.<\/p>\n The technical illustration displayed beside the gallery explains the drill rig mounted bottom feed vibroflotation configuration. This system enables additional pull-down pressure during penetration and compaction, improving operational efficiency and soil stabilization performance in demanding ground conditions.<\/p>\n Below the technical illustrations, OMS provides project and operation videos demonstrating real ground improvement applications:<\/p>\n These videos showcase:<\/p>\n The following section continues with additional OMS technical resources, engineering references, and customer support information related to ground improvement technologies.<\/p>\n OMS Technology<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n How Does Vibro Hammer Work?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Vibro Hammer Selection Charts<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Vibro Hammer Production Process<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Ask Also Other Rental-Used Pile Driver<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n SlideShare Presentation about Ground Improvement Techniques<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\nSection Divider and Content Layout<\/h2>\n
