The measured value of total number of blows (N) in a bore hole is found to be 20. The depth of the bore hole was 15m. The water table was located 1.5m below ground level. The soil is fine silty sand whose unit weight above and below the water table is 16k- 3 N m N and 21k respectively. The corrected N value (in integer) would be m
