Show full solutions and informative drawings. 1. Determine the average pressure using Simpon's rule 2. Determine the primary consolidation settlement of the clay layer if it is normally consolidated. NOTES: Correction in the figure. Gs is not 45. The liquid limit is 45. The footing is a square footing 3m x3m
(c) Serviceability limit state is the critical criterion for the design of a square footing on the soil profile shown in Figure Q-c. The groundwater level is 3 m below the ground surface, but is expected to seasonally rise to the surface. The applied loading will cause a vertical stress increase at the center of the clay layer of 15 kPa. Calculate the consolidation settlement of theclay.
A square footing of dimension 1.5m x 1.5m carries a load of 890 kN as shown in the image: Determine the following: (d) primary settlement for normally consolidated clay using exact equation for additional pressure at midpoint of clay. (e) primary settlement for normally consolidated clay using approximate equation for additional pressure at midpoint of clay.
