Papers from sessions at the ASCE National Convention, held in Atlanta, Georgia, October 9-13, 1994. Sponsored by the Geotechnical Engineering Division of ASCE.

This Geotechnical Special Publication (GSP 45) contains 10 papers describing methods of in situ soil improvement. Some papers focus on the use of deep dynamic compaction for densification of collapsible soils, liquefiable soils, and waste materials. Other papers provide a practical summary of what has been learned regarding the potential for improving these materials. In addition, other methods for in situ soil improvement, such as stone columns, deep soil mixing, and vacuum consolidation, are presented.
