ABSTRACT

The paper deals with the short and long term heave and settlement. The settlement discussed is the settlement of the foundations of buildings. All buildings are supported on piled foundations. Measurements are presented and possible explanations are discussed. Settlement measurements from the locations dealt with have been published before Bezuijen et al. (2009) and Bezuijen (2010). In this paper the measurements stretch out over a longer period, showing also yearly fluctuations and for one location the TBM has passed the location and the influence of this passage regarding settlements will be shown.
