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