Grouting does not improve the bearing capacity of the soil.<\/p>\n<p>Chemical action is the process of using chemicals to change the properties of the soil. This can be done to improve the drainage of the soil or to make it more resistant to erosion. Chemical action does not improve the bearing capacity of the soil.<\/p>\n<p>Drainage is the process of removing water from the soil. This can be done by installing drainage pipes or by using surface drainage methods, such as ditches or swales.
