Geotechnical Given the following consolidation test, plot the e-log p relationship and determine if the clay layer in the field is normally consolidated or overconsolidated soil. Plot the field consolidation relationship, and determine the consolidation settlement of the clay layer due to the addition of distributed stress = 90 kPa.**Table:**| Pressure (kPa) | ΔH (mm) | Δe | e ||----------------|---------|-----|------|| 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.891|| 54 | 0.253 | 0.025| 0.866|| 107 | 0.507 | 0.050| 0.841|| 214 | 1.015 | 0.089| 0.802|| 429 | 1.551 | 0.154| 0.737|| 858 | 2.392 | 0.238| 0.653|| 1716 | 3.324 | 0.331| 0.560|| 3432 | 3.520 | 0.424| 0.541|**Diagram Explanation:**- The diagram shows a cross-section of soil layers and stress distribution.- The top layer is sand, 3 m thick, with a unit weight of 15 kN/m³.- Below the sand layer is clay, 5 m thick, with a unit weight of 17.3 kN/m³.- There is an indication of groundwater (W.T.) in the sand layer.- The clay layer is 20 m thick overall.- The diagram also shows an additional distributed stress of 90 kPa being applied.- Initial void ratio of the clay, \( e_0 = 0.891 \).- G.S. indicates ground surface.

The curve of the trend shows that it is an overconsolidated curve
