Summary
Time-dependent Settlement
refers to the
Gradual deformation
or
Subsidence of soil
or structures over time due to
Sustained loads
, often influenced by factors like
Soil Type
,
Moisture Content
, and
Stress History
. Understanding this phenomenon is crucial for predicting
Long-term structural stability
and
Preventing potential failures
in
Civil engineering projects
.
