A dry sand 3.65 m thick has an in-situ dry unit weight of 18 kN/m^3. Using vibroflotation, the surface settled by 0.67 m. The relative density of the sand after this compaction technique yields 90.44%. If the dry unit weight of this dry sand in the loosest state is 14.48 kN/m^3. Determine: 1. The dry unit weight in kN/m^3 after vibroflotation. (2 decimal places) 2. The dry unit weight in kN/m^3 at the densest state. (2 decimal places) 3. Maximum possible settlement in meters of the surface under ideal compaction. (2 decimal places)

Q: 4. For a normally consolidated clay, the following values are given. k (cm/sec) 0.45 x 10 e 0.78 1.1…

A: For e = 0.78, k = 0.45×10-6 and for e = 1.1, k = 0.88×10-6 we have to find k at void ratio e =0.97
