Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1108817A2] A method for the consolidation of soils and buildings subject to drainage and/or removal of the water-bearing stratum, provides for the use of electrosmosis to obtain the cessation of the drainage and the reconstitution of the water-bearing stratum by recalling the stratum itself or constituting and maintaining an artificial stratum. Preferably, a set of negative electrodes and a set of positive electrodes are positioned in the soil, in such a way that connecting the two sets of electrodes to a power supply the electrical field thus applied causes the interruption of the outflow of water and the inversion of the direction of motion of the water with the recall of the water itself.
