11.44 A circular raft foundation of 20 m diameter and 1.6 m thick is provided for a tank that applies a bearing pressure of 110 kPa on sandy soil with Young's modulus, E = 30 MPa and Poisson's ratio, v₂=0.3. The raft is made of concrete (E = 30 GPa and v= 0.15). Considering the raft as rigid, the elastic settlement (in mm) is (a) 50.96 (b) 53.36 (c) 63.72 (d) 66.71
