Abstract: | There are numerous parameters affecting the compressibility characteristics of soft
clays. A few of them such as load increment ratio, type of drainage and thickness of
sample were taken up for detailed investigation. However, the main thrust in the
present investigations was to develop an insight into the benefits of preloading
technique, envolve procedures and establish design charts for preparation of a
precompression programme which will substantially reduce the consolidation
settlements of the extremely soft deposits of Cochin marine clays. |
