Abstract

One of the important soil materials for the evaluation of settlement due to consolidation of soil clay is the compression index (Cc). The assessment of its value through laboratory testing is usually time consuming and expensive. Hence to find the most appropriate model prediction, the paper is examined the compression index comparison with soil plasticity material (water content, liquid limit, plasticity index). The analysis is used by multiple regression analysis and some performance indicators such as Coefficient of Determination (R2), Index of Agreement (IA), Prediction Accuracy (PA), Normalized Absolute Error (NAE) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). The result identified the proposed model by Skempton’s, Sidharan, Nagaraj’s and Hough’s are suitable for the compression index (Cc) equation model. Another essential point, the research is found error measurement for soil plasticity index properties. Thus, this prediction model is useful to develop a preliminary assessment of the settlement of structures and carry out suitable action for landslides in Teziutlan, Mexico.
