I have a site where 2-3 meters of fill will be placed. The subgrade soils are unsaturated overconsolidated clays with the thickest layer of approx 3 m thick.
For monitoring settlements ,what could be the requirements? For example: what could be the max. "x" difference between 2 consecutive readings in order to stop the monitoring? Since I expect only elastic settlements to occur, I do not think that this settlement monitoring will take more than 2 weeks. Well, it will depend on how strict will be the amount "x".
