Field Test and Numerical Simulation of Dynamic Compaction of High Embankment Filled with Soil-Rock

In view of the high filling height and large amount of soil and rock in the high-filled embankment, the variation law of the displacement field, stress field, and plastic zone of embankment body reinforced by dynamic compaction with different energy levels and the optimal compaction energy were analyzed by means of numerical simulations and field tests. Taking the embankment section of the Ping-Zan highway as an example, the construction scheme of dynamic compaction was designed, and the optimum tamping times and effective dynamic compaction depth of the embankment filled with soil-rock were obtained through the field test. The study showed that the displacement field and the stress field are redistributed after applying single-point compaction, and the volume of the shear plastic zone increases. The optimal number of slams for high-filled granular soil is 7 times, and the effective depth of dynamic compaction is 4.5 m. The result corresponds with that by the field test, which indicates that dynamic compaction is reasonable and has a significant effect on the high embankment filled with granular soil.
