Speeding up the consolidation process
Speeding up the consolidation process
(OP)
Looking at ways to quicken up the consolidation process of a 20ha land overlain with very soft clay and sand layers with SPN less than 10.
Any novel ideas? I know the conventional way is adding surcharge and installing vertical drains. Any faster way?

Jam a piezo cone in the ground and see what you can clearly define.
Then I'd calculate the magnitude of consolidation and figure out what U% I'd need to mitigate the problem. Calculate the time for that U% and see whether you need a surcharge?
