Requirements
This 3-hour course presents a step-by-step solution to a comprehensive range of 1-d consolidation problems for civil engineering students and professionals.
It covers the gap that exists in mainstream curricula that lack sufficient coverage of solved examples due to time limitations.
I have carefully selected the course problems so that they match those that you may come across in your assignments or exams. The course is also applicable to real-life settlement problems in clayey soils.
