Worked Example Calculation of Settlement of Shallow Foundations at the CenterData. Dimensions of foundation 1.5m x 2m.A1 = 0.934. A2 = m' / n' (m'2 +n'2 + 1)0.5 F1 = (1/03c0)A0 + A1 = (1/03c0)0.760 + 0.934 = 0.539. F2 = (n'/203c0) tan-1A2If = 0.755. Foundation Settlement.

Differential settlement is non-uniform settlement. It is "the difference of settlement between various locations of the structure. Angular distortion between two points under a structure is equal, to the differential settlement between the points divided by the distance between them.

Foundation Settlement is due primarily to the expanding soil cycle (shrinkage and expansion) directly dependent on water content. This constant movement weakens and softens soils and can also create pockets/voids beneath your home's foundation, which your home will sink/settle into following the laws of gravity.

Consolidation settlement is time dependent natural process of fully saturated soil due to expulsion of water from the voids and compaction is instantaneous artificial process of partially saturated soil due to expulsion of air from voids.

Total settlement for cohesive soils are generally estimated by the sum of immediate settlement, primary consolidation and secondary compression, where immediate settlement usually constitutes a significant portion of the total settlement.

The total settlement of the ground consists of 3 components: immediate settlement (commonly referred to as elastic settlement, although this is a misnomer), consolidation settlement (or primary settlement) and creep settlement (or secondary settlement).
