Influence of Vertical Geodrain Characteristics on the Pore Hydrodynamics in the Consolidation Phenomena of Soft Clays
This paper is an attempt to study the influence of pore hydro-dynamics on consolidation characteristics of soft clays using two vertical geodrains viz. coir-jute fiber drain and sand drain of ‘n’ value 11.04. Objective is to analyise soil-structural changes due to effect of various physico-mechanical parameters on consolidation phenomena and its influence on degree of consolidation based on isochrones. A theoretical philosophy of pore water and pore behaviour on consolidation characteristics is presented and results are analyised using theoretical solution of consolidation based on isochrones developed by authors. Soil structural changes were determined using SEM and volumetric characterization was done with micro structure characterization (MIC) software based on ASTM method. Results justify the importance of pore hydrodynamics on rate of consolidation of soft clays and further giving a new concept of changing soil structure/orientation as per equilibrium of pore hydrodynamics for rapid compression.
