Abstract

A tapered weight 10 is dropped to provide a depression 30 in the ground 26. Additional material 32 is introduced into the depression 30, prior to a further drop of the weight 10. The additional material is preferably formed by mixing soil and a ground amelioration material, preferably a binder and/or quick lime.
