The ALiCC method is a method to reduce consolidation settlement directly beneath a raised embankment, by positioning cement-hardened improvement columns throughout the whole area directly beneath the embankment, leaving large spaces in between. It allows a lower improvement ratio than is conventional, for lower costs and shortened schedules.
