Settlement of embankment on soft soil treated with conventional preloading-surcharge

Structures that are build on soft soil are subjected to the excessive amount of settlements and the settlement is attributed to consolidation process. In this study, the structure that been analysed is the road way embankment. In the loads from the structures, the settlement will occur in a period o...
