Effectiveness of Sand Drains in Peaty Soil in a Case of Differential Settlement Recovering
The result obtained in a case history of differential settlement recovery are reported. The effectiveness of sand drains in peaty soil is questioned. The importance and the mutual influence of the primary and secondary settlement are discussed. Remarks are made on the value of secondary settlement coefficient.
