Abstract: | Conclusions 1. The proposed method makes it possible to realize safe controllable deformation of a subgrade, given a "building-bed" system of various shapes and values of settlements recorded with time. It shortens the time required for experimental operations from 6–10 months (for measurement of field settlements) to several days.2. The method can be used in conducting field experiments; the leveling and occupacy of buildings on platforms are not associated with the expectancy of deformation effects due to slump-type settlement or undermining.Scientific-Research Institute of Structural Parts, Zaporozhe Division of the Scientific-Research Institute of Structural Parts.
