Q. 12 A soil profile at a certain location is as shown in figure. A rigid circular foundation of 4 m diameter rests on the sand. The contact pressure at the underside of the foundation is 230 kN/m?. The average coefficient of compressibility of the clay is 0.65 × 10-3 m2/kN for the stress range encountered. The ultimate settlement of the foundation assuming 45° load distribution
Can you solve with explanation pls. ty
A normally consolidated clay layer 4.38 m. thick has a void ratio of 1.06. Liquid limit is equal to 37 and the average effective stress on the clay layer was 79 kPa. The average stress on it is increased to 117 kPa. as result of the construction of a foundation. If the clay layer is preconsolidated, compute the consolidation settlement in millimeters if the preconsolidation pressure is 138 KPa. Use Cs = 1/6Cc.
