Problem Number 2: A soil profile is shown in the figure below, a uniformly distributed load (A6) at the ground surface, what will be the settlement of the clay layer caused by primary consolidation (Sp = mm)? Given that 6'c = 137.5556 KN/m? and Cs = 1/6 Cc.. A6 = 50.6583 KN/m² Sand Yany= 16.3475 KN/m³ 2.7554 m Grounwater table Sand 4.8755 m Yat. = 17.1258 KN/m3 Clay Yga= 20.4791 KN/m³ ; e, = 0.7435 5.1852 m LL = 55.6732 %
