1.INTRODUCTION
SETTLEMENT:
Settlementin a structure refers to
the distortion or disruption of parts
of a building due to:
a)
Unequal compression of its
foundations
b) Shrinkage due to changes in
moisture content
c) Undue loads being applied to the
building after its initial construction.
TYPES OF SETTLEMENT:
Uniform settlement
Non-uniform settlement
Tilting
2.OBJECTIVES:
The present project will investigate
theoretically , the behavior of soil under
long term loading.
This project includes :
What are the causes of settlements.
How differential settlement takes place.
How to overcome settlements in
structures.
CAUSES OF SETTLEMENTS:
REPAIR TECHNIQUES:
Foundation underpinning
Polymer injection
Grout pumping
DIFFERENTIAL SETTLEMENT:
The settlement of a structure is the amount the
