Abstract
In this paper, I report a correction of the observational results using optical level of differential settlements of structures on soft clay layers. 1. Generally, differential settlements are observed on the finished surface of floors or roofs. In this case, however, it is impossible to observe the settlements which occurred at the beginning of consolidation. 2. A correcting method of observational results is proposed in this paper. 3. The results I obtained from the correcting method were in fair agreement with the recommendatory value for the limiting angle of deormation, the settlement ratio and the allowable settlement of structures which are shown in Part I.
