The modified apparatus has capacity of applying designated vacuum pressure of 80 kPa to soil body ；otherwise it is also possible to measure the pore pressure at different depths of the soil column，the settlement and the volume change along elapsed time. Two series of test are implemented on silty clay dredged from Qinhuai River in Nanjing，China. The study concludes that the vacuum preloading has generally remarkable effects on soil improvement. However，the effects by using the VAB method are much better than that by using VOT method. It is found that the water content more decreased by about 10% ；the dry density more increased by about 11%. The undrained shear strength has increased by about 35%. T
