Settlements of multistory buildings on foundations placed in tamped trenches with an expanded base
Conclusions 1. A compacted zone of soil with a thickness equal to the stratum being compressed, within the limits of the soil loses its slump-type-settlement properties, and the pressure on the lower boundary of the compacted zone does not exceed the structural strength of the uncompacted soil, is created as a result of the tamping of trenches and the embedment of crushed stone. 2. Settlements of the bed of foundations in tamped trenches are virtually completed during the building's construction and amount to less than 80% of the final settlement. 3. The relative difference in the settlements of foundations in tamped trenches with an expanded base is significantly lower than that established by requirements set forth in the Construction Rules and Regulations; this indicates uniform bed performance after tamping of the trenches and embedment of crushed stone.
