Printer-friendlyDeep-Ripping and Decompaction
The two-phase practice of 1) "Deep Ripping;" and 2) "Decompaction" (deep subsoiling), of the
soil material as a step in the cleanup and restoration/landscaping of a construction site, helps
mitigate the physically induced impacts of soil compression; i.e.: soil compaction or the
substantial increase in the bulk density of the soil material. The Deep-Ripping and Decompaction (pdf, 599 kb) report is available for download.
