Q I/ Single footing (3 by 1.5) m shown in Figure I carrying 900 kN centric load, estimate the consolidation settlement at the center of clay layer, calculate the time required for 50% consolidation. Use y, = 10 kN /m. P= 900 kN N. G.L Sandy soil y = 16 kN/m³ W. TV Ysat = 18 kN/m Clay y = 15 kN/m3 e, = 0.8 C = 0.3 Cy = 1.3 m² /year Bed rock 3 m 1.5 m
