Settlement prediction of shallow foundations for quality controls of sandy hydraulic fills

This paper describes a procedure for settlement prediction of shallow foundations on carbonate sands, but it is fully applicable and valid for siliceous sands. For practical purposes, the design of shallow foundations resting on medium dense and dense granular soils is typically governed by limiting...
