Although a Deep Cement Mixing (DCM) pile has many advantages with various applications, failure caused by pile failure can occur especially when subjected to the lateral loads. Moreover, the unexpected lower strength than the design commonly occurs due to lack of quality control during construction. To mitigate the above-mentioned problem, a new kind of composite pile named Stiffened DCM (SDCM) pile is introduced.
