That\u2019s the question which led engineers in Japan to develop an innovative ground consolidation method \u2013 Deep Cement Mixing or DCM.<\/p><p>The process begins by using an auger to drill narrow holes into the seabed. Once the machine reaches the desired depth, a binder material, most commonly cement, is injected to fill the space and mix with the soft mud. Once the cement is hardened, it forms a column embedded in the seabed. This process is repeated multiple times across the area selected for reclamation, creating large groups of columns that significantly increases the load bearing capacity of the seabed.<\/p><p>First tested in 1970s, the use of DCM in land reclamation was initially limited to Japan and Scandinavia. But by the 1980s, the method has gained widespread popularity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cbcb4e8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"cbcb4e8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/Deep-Cement-Mixing-1.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzkzNTcsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9uZXdzLnNhbXN1bmdjbnQuY29tXC91cGxvYWRcLzIuMFwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvc2l0ZXNcLzNcLzIwMThcLzAzXC9EZWVwLUNlbWVudC1NaXhpbmctMS5qcGcifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"588\" src=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/Deep-Cement-Mixing-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-39357\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/Deep-Cement-Mixing-1.jpg 940w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/Deep-Cement-Mixing-1-300x230.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ebeb30f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ebeb30f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">DCM in Action<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2370371 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2370371\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Samsung C&amp;T is one of the world\u2019s leading experts in soil consolidation and DCM is a key method the company employs to ensure its projects are effective and sustainable.<\/p><p>One of the company\u2019s most notable DCM projects is the expansion of Hong Kong International Airport into a Three Runway System. Located north of the airport, consolidation of the soil at the 650 hectares site began in August 2016. Since 40% of the area consists of contaminated mud pits that were generated from dredging in other areas of the city, DCM was favored to limit the potential damage to the environment.<\/p><p>To further prevent toxic substances from being released, Samsung C&amp;T engineers placed a two-meter-thick sand blanket on top of large sheets of geotextile on the seabed before drilling. Working like a filter, the projective layer removes any mud that sticks on the drills when they are lifted.<\/p><p>More recently,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/en\/samsung-ct-wins-421m-reclamation-contract-hong-kong\/\">Samsung C&amp;T began works on the extension of Tung Chung New Town in Hong Kong in January this year<\/a>. To help tackle housing shortage in the city, the company will adopt DCM to create 134 hectares of reclaimed land in the northern part of Lantau Island. Expected to be completed by July 2024, the new land will be used to house over 200,000 residents.<\/p><p>Not only will the use of DCM ensure the strength of Hong Kong\u2019s valuable marine life, both projects will also bring new employment opportunities and provide room for the city\u2019s economy to grow.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d6561b8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"d6561b8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/Samsung-CT-Wins-a-421M-Reclamation-Contract-in-Hong-Kong-2.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzkzNjAsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9uZXdzLnNhbXN1bmdjbnQuY29tXC91cGxvYWRcLzIuMFwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvc2l0ZXNcLzNcLzIwMThcLzAzXC9TYW1zdW5nLUNULVdpbnMtYS00MjFNLVJlY2xhbWF0aW9uLUNvbnRyYWN0LWluLUhvbmctS29uZy0yLmpwZyJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"561\" src=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/Samsung-CT-Wins-a-421M-Reclamation-Contract-in-Hong-Kong-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-39360\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/Samsung-CT-Wins-a-421M-Reclamation-Contract-in-Hong-Kong-2.jpg 940w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/Samsung-CT-Wins-a-421M-Reclamation-Contract-in-Hong-Kong-2-300x219.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Three Runway System at Hong Kong Int\u2019l Airport<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3e46a90 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3e46a90\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/940x687.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzkzNjEsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9uZXdzLnNhbXN1bmdjbnQuY29tXC91cGxvYWRcLzIuMFwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvc2l0ZXNcLzNcLzIwMThcLzAzXC85NDB4Njg3LmpwZyJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"561\" src=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/940x687.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-39361\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/940x687.jpg 940w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/940x687-300x219.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Three Runway System at Hong Kong Int\u2019l Airport<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d445584 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d445584\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">A Solid Future<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d5913af elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d5913af\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The demand for new land will grow as urban centers around the world become more populated.
