What is Rammed Aggregate Pier Design in CA about?

This document summarizes a paper on the design and construction of rammed aggregate piers (RAPs) used to support foundations in California. RAPs involve drilling holes and compacting crushed rock to improve weak soils. RAPs act as stiff elements that attract loads from foundations. Footings can be designed to bear directly on RAPs, using a higher allowable bearing pressure, or on engineered fill over RAPs. Preliminary design values are provided for RAP stiffness and allowable bearing capacity based on soil
