* * * * * * * * * * * * * * Summary of 1D consolidation Basic equations: Stress strain relationship: Mass balance of fluid: Darcy’s law: In essence: coupling of soil deformation and seepage! Example Q: What is the driving force ofsettlement? A: Increase of effective stress due to water pumping. Q: What is the increase of effectivestress? The final settlement of the clay layer: The increase of effective stress at the center of the claylayer. The settlement with time: Vertical drains The degree of consolidation is largely determined by the length of drainage path. Vertical drains can be ins
