Construction on soft ground often involves a number of geotechnical issues especially that related to settlements. Excessive post-construction settlements may they be total or differential have always caused serious problem to all parties in the project. Insufficient knowledge on existing ground conditions due to lacking of a proper site investigation coupled with inadequacy in design especially in the foundation for supporting structure could be the likely reasons for causing this problem and lead to eventual instability of the structure above. In general, a reasonably accurate assessment on the rate of settlement of soil is a very important factor in ensuring the achievement of structurally sound building and/or infrastructural work on soft ground without the development of excessive post-construction settlement. In the current investigation, sensitivity analysis to enhance prediction of settlement is carried out using the PLAXIS Finite Element 2D Program by setting the relevant control parameters. This would allow post-construction settlement be predicted during the pre-construction stage be predicted. It is believed that this is useful in assisting the design engineer in arriving at a satisfactory solution subsequently. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
