9.17 Figure 9.43 shows an embankment load for a silty clay soil layer. Determine the vertical stress increase at points A, B, and C. 9.18 Consider a circularly loaded flexible area on the ground surface. Given that the radius of the circular area R = 6 ft and that the uniformly distributed 7.5 ft 7.5 ft 30 ft Figure 9.43 Unit weight y 115 lb/ft3 15 ft load q = 3500 lb/ft², calculate the vertical stress increase, A , at points 1.5. 3,6,9, and 12 ft below the ground surface (immediately below the center of the circular area).
