AbstractAmong the method of g round improvement applied in South of Vietnam nowadays in many port projects , the cement deep mixing ( CDM ) method h as been more and more used . Besides slope stability control, settlement reduction was also the aim of the soft ground improvement. The SP - SPA port international project is built of in Ba Ria Vung Tau province . It has a design load of 65 KPa and is founded in a subsoil with a soft clay layer of 20 to 3 0 m thickness. The ground improvement work is compulsory to be done here and CDM was employed. The SP - PSA International Terminal Project is a container port with 1,200m length container berth for 80,000DWT vessels, 540,000m² area of land for container stacking yard, and others. The objective of this study was to performed a settlement analysis to see if the allowable settlement is achieved . Settlement was calculated, using a quick sheet and plaxis.
