Q2/ A (2m x 4 m) rectangular flexible foundation is placed above the ground surface (G.S) for two layers of clay, each layer 10 m thick. The modulus of Elasticity (E.) of the upper layer is 13 MN/m² and that of the lower layer is 15 MN/m². The Poisson ratio is (u, = 0.6) for the two layers. The pressure (stress) of 100 kN/m²is distributed along the surface of foundation. Determine the rigid immediate settlement at the corner of the foundation using Elastic theory method?
