Settlement Analysis of Pipe Culvert Situated in Soft Clay Treated with Prefabricated Vertical Drains by Adamu Beyene Negesa

“…Similarly, the culvert structure provided at station km 159 + 112 of the Awash-Kombolcha-Hara Gebeya Railway Project, Ethiopia, was situated along the route traversing soft clay ground of significant thickness. For the intention of reducing consolidation time and lessening the precarious impact of the postconstruction settlement, the soft clay ground was treated with preloading and prefabricated vertical drains. …”
