The project comprises ground improvement prior to construct the permanent airport facility, including landside road systems and east runway, taxiway by using prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs) with preloading embankment to reduce the postconstruction settlement. Over 60 million meters of PVD were installed at the construction site. A comprehensive instrumentation program was undertaken to observe the ground improvement performance. Subsoil investigation was conducted after the removing of preloading was completed.

• •  Monitored geotechnical work including site investigation programs
• •  Supervised PVD installation and preloading procedures
• •  Observed instrumentation, testing, geotechnical analysis, and prepared summary reports
• •  Monitored QA/QC programs
