THE SETTLEMENT ANALYSIS OF THE 2ND ORGANIZED INDUSTRIAL REGION (KONYA - TURKEY) CLAYS USING PLAXIS SOFTWARE
Abstract
In this study, the geotechnical properties of the 2nd Organized Industrial Region clays were investigated and the settlement analysis was made with Plaxis software. First of all, the geotechnical properties of the disturbed and undisturbed specimens taken from the 2nd Organized Industrial Region and its surroundings were determined with laboratory and field (SPT) tests accordi ng to criterion defined in TS 1900. For this purpose, there were drilled 18 bore wells with 40 m depth. The para meters that would be used in the analyses were defined, and the consolida tion settlement values occurring under additional structural stresses were ca lculated. Later, considering the results obtained from the field and laboratory data, the consolidation settlement analysis of the investigated area was performed with the Plaxis software. The analytical results were compared with the results obtained from the analyses performed with Plaxis software, and it was observed that especially the Plaxis settlement values were in large values. The base pressure (kPa) - settleme nt correlation for this region’s soils was produced using the Plaxis software.
