Urbanization and the subsequent construction of infrastructure, such as highways, railways, and ports, have significantly increased the demand for suitable ground. As a result, developers are now exploring regions with low bearing capacity, such as waterside areas along lakes, rivers, and marine shores. The soils prevalent in these areas, commonly referred to as soft soils, are characterized by low shear strength, high compressibility, and low hydraulic conductivity. To improve soft soils for land reclamation prior to construction, staged preloading is a widely used technique Le et al., 2012). Due to the extreme softness of these soils, pre-treatment is essential before implementing additional construction methods (Garoushi and Uygar, 2022). In theory, the time corresponding to the end of primary consolidation (EOP) is often used to estimate the onset of secondary compression. This research investigates the impact of accelerated and aged stress loading on both the virgin compression lines and rebound index of soft soils.
