Instrumentation for consolidation study of clay deposit beneath embankment
For measurement of consolidation beneath highway embankment settlement gage was developed and installed just below natural ground surface before 23 ft high embankment was constructed; settlement between natural ground surface and reference elevations within clay deposit were measured by determining electric resistances proportional to vertical displacements; by connected potentiometer, displacements to accuracy of 0.05 in. or 1.3 mm can be determined.
