Améliorations récentes pour le calcul des tassements de consolidation unidimensionnelle


During past fifty years, more than four millions pressure-meter tests have been conducted in order to allow the construction of the foundations of the bridges of the new network of French motorways and railways and of the numerous buildings erected in France during this period. It has induced great improvements in the understanding of the best use of this test in order to be the most relevant in the design of their foundations. We will present a summary of this important know how, but limiting our presentation to the assessment of one-dimensional consolidation settlement.
