Abstract
Construction of the 276 and 312 ha reclamation on the Holocene marine clay deposit in Jakarta Bay is on-going. Settlement has been measured during the construction in order to satisfy the requirement of residual settlement. This paper briefly discusses limitation of accuracy of settlement prediction based on purely parameters derived from laboratory and in situ testing, in particular the Holocene marine clay. A reliable ‘observational’ method which makes full use of the monitoring data is described and estimates reliable residual settlement. More accurate settlement method is then also briefly described taken into account complex loading history. Finally, the factors, which are source of inaccurate settlement predictions and its implications, are included in the discussion.
