Secondary Compression Settlement Calculator
Secondary (creep) settlement Ss = H * C_alpha / (1 + e_p) * log10(t2 / t1), where C_alpha is the secondary compression index from the e - log10 t tail of an oedometer test, e_p the void ratio at end of primary consolidation, and t1, t2 the creep time window in years.
