Project Description

This study assessed the expected vertical elevation change of the dredge slurry fill due to immediate and long term settlement and consolidation. Work performed included reviewing previous analyses performed to help improve the ability to predict settlement and consolidation; researching new methods, models, and techniques that could improve how CPRA design teams predict settlement and consolidation; and data collection to verify the accuracy of the settlement and consolidation analyses performed during project design.

Project Goals

The goal of this project is to take a marsh creation project using hydraulic fill and develop a monitoring plan to collect sufficient data so that the calculations used to estimate settlement can be validated for the site. For this project, the Freshwater Bayou marsh creation project is the proposed site to be monitored.
