Answer»

Right choice is (b) Vibroflotation

To explain I WOULD say: Vibroflotation increases the DENSITY of soil which ultimately results in the increase of bearing capacity of soil. This method is useful for granular or SANDY soil and before the PROCESSING of underpinning START, the building or any of its structure components is shored carefully.
