Rolling Dynamic Compaction (RDC) is a generic term associated with densifying the ground using a non-circular roller. The application and use of RDC in the mining industry is increasing because of its ability to compact ground efficiently by means of a faster...
Manufactured and further developed in Australia over the last 21 years, the “square” Impact Roller has found a variety of applications in various parts of the world. Employing the well-established principles of rolling dynamic compaction, the Impact Roller densifies...
The construction and management of haul roads remains a critical element in the efficient operation of all mines. Significant effort has been applied to design practices, extending the use of design charts and computer programs. Attention has been paid to the pavement...
Vibratory and impact rollers achieve deeper lift compaction than static rollers. Ground improvement with impact rollers occurs through rolling dynamic compaction, enabling compaction to significant depths, generally more than 1 m. This provides the opportunity to...
Rolling dynamic compaction (RDC) consists of a non-circular module of 3, 4 or 5 sides, that rotates as it is towed, causing it to fall to the ground and compact it dynamically. There is currently little guidance available for geotechnical practitioners regarding the...
