Settlement Prediction: A Probabilistic Approach
In the report, a probabilistic soil-structure interaction model is developed which yields first-order probabilistic information (i.e., means, standard deviations and correlation coefficients) about the movements of the foundation in terms of prescribed probabilistic input about loads and soil properties. The proposed method is applicable only to linear elastic structures supported on shallow foundations, but bounds are suggested for the means and standard deviations of the differential settlements in the case where settlement-induced stiffness deterioration occurs. The uncertainty of joint displacements and forces imposed on the structure by random deformation of its foundation is also discussed. (Author)
