Question 20 A soil profile consists of sand (5-m thick) which overlies a layer of clay (9-m thick). Ground water table is located at the interface of the sand and clay. The effective stress at the bottom of the clay layer was determined. If the water table rises to the top of the ground surface, what is the change in the effective stress (in kPa) at the bottom of the clay layer? For sand layer: Void Ratio = 0.82, Specific gravity = 2.68, Degree of Saturation = 0.6 For clay layer: Void Ratio = 0.92, Specific gravity = 2.86 Round off to two decimal places.

A normally consolidated clay layer 4.38 m. thick has a void ratio of 1.06. Liquid limit is equal to 37 and the average effective stress on the clay layer was 79 kPa. The average stress on it is increased to 117 kPa. as result of the construction of a foundation. If the clay layer is preconsolidated, compute the consolidation settlement in millimeters if the preconsolidation pressure is 138 KPa. Use Cs = 1/6Cc.
