A theoretical model for evaluating the compaction grouting induced soil strength improvement has been developed based on the initial void ratio, the compression index, and the material parameter (Eui/(1+ν)Sui) of the soil before grouting. The soil strength improved around the compaction grout bulb increases with the decreasing distance, the increasing void ratio, the decreasing compressinon index, as well as the decreasing material parameter. This model has been satisfactorily verified with the laboratory test sata obtained in this study and from other independent investigation.
