Q. What is Immediate Settlement?

Strain in all coarse grained, dry or partly saturated fine grained soils occur immediately after the application of stress. Hence, this change in strain is referred to as immediate settlement. Application of stress to saturated fine grained soils (or nearby saturated soils) produces strains that are time dependent.
