Hello

what is (are) the different(s) between settlement and deformation in the soils?

thank you

Bashar Ismael

Hi Omar,

Hope everything is going well with you. The settlement means a reduction in the height of a sample i.e. the reduction in the height of a sample under the application of load increment in Oedometer test (this also could be considered as deformation). Basically, deformation is more general than settlement.

Hope this help

Yours
