The results of research and development of methods for the calculation, design and practical application of a method for technique of improvement soft soil bases for slab foundations with the use of rigid large elements are reported. The optimal percentage of rigid elements, structural characteristics of improved soils (increment and diameter of rigid elements) are presented and principles for their calculation and design are given. As exemplified by a specific construction site, it is demonstrated that technological schemes for the arrangement of improved soils, developed by RUE Institute BelNIIS, reduce the deformability of soft soil bases by four times and more.
