A laboratory consolidation test on a 25 mm thick normally consolidated clay specimen showed the following data: Stress (kPa) 150 300 Determine: Void Ratio at end of consolidation 0.9 0.82 The time required for the specimen to reach 50% consolidation was 5 min. A similar clay layer in the field, 3.0 m thick, and drained only on one side is subject to a similar average pressure increase (i.e., ovo = 150 kPa and ovo + Ao = 300 kPa). The compression index of the clay The permeability of the clay The ultimate consolidation settlement in the field The time required to achieve 50 mm settlement in the field.
