Calculation of Consolidation Settlement considering Primary and Secondary Settlement

In this study, it was proposed that a modified equation for estimating consolidation settlement on soft clay ground, which separate total settlement into primary and secondary settlement equation. The settlement by the proposed equation and by the measured settlements from laboratory model test was compared and verified for its application. It was appeared that the proposed equation from the laboratory model test approached to be more realistic comparing to the result of Terzaghi's equation. From the above application, it was concluded that the final settlement prediction by the Hyperbolic, Asaoka methods is needed to measure the initial period of settlement but the proposed equation could be much applicable in the lacking condition of measured data of the initial period.
