I have calculated the immediate and consolidation settlement for pile group (in clay soil), and the results was 3.3 mm and 33 mm respectively. are these values admissible for settlement beneath pile foundation or not? and why?

Is this for a single pile group? What is the settlement for the other pile groups? You have to be more concerned about the differential settlement between groups than the uniform settlement if they all move at the same time and magnitude.
