Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Presents guidelines for calculation of vertical displacements and settlement of soil under shallow foundations. This manual also provides guidance for: tests to estimate secondary compression settlement; estimation of settlement for dynamic loads; calculation of soil movements in expansive soils; and calculation of settlement in collapsible soil.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 75) and index.
Bibliography: p. 76-79.
Introduction -- Limitations of settlement -- Evaluation of settlement for static loads -- Evaluation of settlement for dynamic and transient loads -- Applications with unstable foundation soil -- Coping with soil movements.
