SIT N. The figure below shows a layer of sand (ya = 16.5 kN/m³, Ysat = 18 kN/m³) and a layer of clay (Ysat = 20 kN/m³, e=0.85, LL = 48%). The soil is acted upon by a uniformly distributed load AP = 60 kPa at the ground surface. Use H1₁ = 4 m., H₂ = 8 m., and H₂ = 6 m. A. Compute the settlement of the consolidating layer caused by primary consolidation if the soil is normally consolidated. B. Compute the settlement of the consolidating layer caused by primary consolidation if the preconsolidation pressure of clay is 230 kPa, Use Cs=1/5Ce C. Compute the settlement of the consolidating layer caused by primary consolidation if the preconsolidation pressure of clay is 200 kPa, Use C₁ = 1/5C,
