Abstract
The method of Spectral Analysis of Surface Wave (SASW) is a seismic method that consider as a non-destructive geotechnical technique to determine the soil profile based on the shear wave velocity profile by utilizing the dispersive characteristic of Rayleigh wave through the soil medium. The shear wave velocity was found to be directly proportional to the strength of the soil. In this research, SASW measurement had been proposed to predict the soil settlements using numerical modelling. The frequency responses from SASW were acquired for shear wave profile analysis using WinSASW software. Thus, the borehole information which near to the conventional pile method and SASW were taken as the reference of the study. In obtaining the correlated N-value, equation that developed from previous research was used with the reference of N-SPT value. Hence, the correlated N-values were carried forward to obtaining the bearing capacity of foundation. Meanwhile, the numerical modelling has been developed in PLAXIS software in obtaining the soil settlement. The prediction of soil settlements of Site 1, Site 2 and Site 3 that calculated by conventional equation and modelled using PLAXIS were 0.003mm and 0.001mm, 0.002mm and 0.004mm, 0.003mm and 0.004m respectively. Based on the result obtained, this research has shown the potential used of shear wave velocity in the prediction of soil settlement.
