Settlement in the soil


There are the three kind of settlements, occured in soil
  • Immediate Settilement
  • primery settilement (consolidation settlement)
  • secondry settlement
Immidiate settlement : 

Immediate settlement take place during the construction or after the construction of structure. its also known a distorsion settlement.
It's computed by the elastic theory especially for cohesion soil.





Primery settlement : 
  • this type of settlement occured due to th expulsion of water from the voides of soil called primery or comsolidation settlement.
Secondry Settlement :
  • this type of settlement occured due to the rearrangement  of the soil particles or we can say that  it is occured due the volume change in the soil particcles called secondry settlement.
