A developer plans to extend Bayview Haven residential estate in Darwin by constructing a 3.5mm fill platform over very soft mangrove silty clay soils. Borehole drilling indicates the very soft clay soils are 5m thick and underlain by rock of extremely low permeability, with the water table at the ground surface. Laboratory testing indicates the following geotechnical properties of the soils: • Very Soft Silty Clay: Degree of saturation - 100%, Coefficient of Volume Compressibility (m.) - 0.85 MPa', coefficient of consolidation of clay (c.) = 2.5 m/yr; dry unit weight - 13 kN/m', moisture content - 38%.

2- Subsurface geotechnical investigations carried out in a deposit of sand provided the field standard penetration numbers N60 as given in the table below. During the geotechnical investigations, it is also observed that underground water table is encountered at a depth of 2.0 m below the ground surface. Laboratory tests have shown that physical properties of deposit of sand are as: Dry unit weight = 17.6 kN/m³ and saturated unit weight = 19.6 kN/m³. Determine, for an earthquake magnitude of 8.25, if liquefaction will occur at the site. Assume that maximum peak ground acceleration at the site is: amax = 0.25g.
