One of your junior engineers has submitted a construction quality (CQC) plan foryour review before it is sent to the client. The CQC plan includes a compactionspecification for the compacted clay liner. The specification requires that the clay becompacted to a dry unit weight 92% of maximum dry unit weight (standard Proctor)and wet of standard Proctor optimum water content. Compaction and hydraulicconductivity-water content curves for the soil are shown in the figure below. The clayliner is required to have hydraulic conductivity1 x 10-7cm/sec. Find the acceptablezone based on hydraulic conductivity. Does this specification ensure that the requiredhydraulic conductivity will be obtained?  Part II: Explain the shape of the standard Proctor compaction and hydraulicconductivity-water content curves (above) in terms of the shear strength and fate of clodsduring compaction

Please give me give me right solution.. Urgent

Define the term critical void ratio.

Q12 Please provide justified answer asap

Consolidation test results are provided below, (Hint: C, or C = Ae / log(of/ai') ): 1.2 1.1 1- 0.9 Void ratio 0.8 0.7 0.6 0.5 0.4 1 10 100 1000 Vertical stress (kPa) (log scale) In some of the results an interval is provided. It ccan be possible to get a result between the given values Use the plot and find pre-consolidation pressure (past maximum vertical effective stress) pe' according to Casagrande's method. pe'= .kPa Seç. Find C, Seç. Find C.: Seç. If the tested soil sample is taken at a depth of 5m (ysat=18kN/m) where the groundwater table is located at the surface what is the Over Consolidation Ratio(OCR) (OCR= pclo vo) Seç. Initial height of the specimen is 22mm. What is the final height of the specimen when effective vertical stress is 650kPa? Hint: Use void ratio. Seç.
