To maintain the stability of built structures, engineers employ various methods to increase ground strength. One such method is to exert mutual physical force upon a structure, thereby stabilizing it without external reinforcement. Typical examples include the stone mastic asphalt method and torsional structured stonework. By simulating a structural phenomenon, it is possible to increase the ground's strength simply by manipulating the distribution and spatial arrangement of soil particles; soil composed of two differently sized particles satisfying a specific ratio does not separate easily. The jamming of soil particles utilizes Plato
