In one embodiment, a sand boil filter apparatus has a filter cone including an inner cone mesh and an outer cone mesh, the inner cone mesh having a finer mesh than the outer cone mesh. A filter tube extends through the hollow interior of the filter cone. The filter tube includes a lower portion disposed below the open apex. The filter tube includes an upper portion disposed above the open base. The upper portion has a plurality of sets of exit openings which are spaced along a length of the upper portion to provide different possible exit heights for the plurality of sets of exit openings, each set including one or more exit openings disposed at an exit height of the filter tube. An exit height adjustment tool blocks all of the exit openings disposed below a set of unblocked exit openings selected to provide a corresponding exit height.

A method for foundation consolidation combining vacuum preloading and geomembrane bag assembly loading, which comprises: digging a slurry pit, filling mud into the slurry pit and conducting vacuum preloading pumpdrainage for multiple times, laying the geomembrane bag assemblies above the soft slurry seam processed through vacuum preloading pumpdrainage inside the slurry pit to form a plurality of loading layers, and laying the geomembrane bag assemblies by piling geomembrane bags. In view of the engineering complexity and uneven settlement resulting from conventional vacuum preloading using slag loading, geomembrane bag for loading to overcome the adverse effects of slag loading. In the present invention, the drainage system and the geomembrane bag assemblies are laid out to fully leverage their perspective properties, so as to improve the transmission of vacuity in the whole soil mass, speed up the drainage rate, and increase the degree of consolidation.

The present invention discloses a soft soil foundation single-hole depth air compression drainage device and working method thereof, comprising an air compression pipe and a water drainage pipe. A water drainage cavity body and an air diffusion cavity body are buried respectively in a soft soil foundation, and the air diffusion cavity body is located below the water drainage cavity body. Connecting to the air diffusion cavity body, the air compression pipe protrudes out of ground surface along a vertical direction of the soft soil foundation and communicates with an inflation pump; connecting to the water drainage cavity body, one end of the water drainage pipe protrudes to the bottom of the water drainage cavity body, and the other end protrudes out of the ground surface, thus achieving deep drainage and a drainage consolidation time of the deep soft soil foundation is shortened.
