    This research article examines the use of vibrocompaction to improve calcareous sands in the United Arab Emirates. It discusses vibrocompaction techniques used on calcareous sand and presents the results of compaction and CBR tests on treated soils. The authors found that vibrocompaction increased the dry unit weight and CBR values of the treated calcareous sands.
