A plate load test was conducted on a uniform sand deposit using a 0.75 m diameter plate. Test results are as follows:
-Ultimate Bearing Capacity = 500 kn/m^2
-Settlement at Ultimate Bearing Load = 12 mm
-The anticipated settlement for a foundation with B = 2.0 m, is most nearly:
A) 25 mm
B) 5.5 mm
C) 12.5 mm
D) 30 mm
When I solve this, I get around 25.388 mm - (a) but I wanted someone else to lay eyes on it.
Thanks!

3. A laboratory consolidation test was conducted on a specimen collected form the middle of the overconsolidated clay layer and the field consolidation curve is given below. The effective overburden pressure was 40.95 kN/m²at the middle of the clay layer. Calculate a) the recompression index, b) the compression index, and c) the consolidation settlement when the average vertical stress increment at the middle of the clay layer is 50kN/m² due to a foundation load. The thickness of...

A laboratory column experiment is set up to test the transport of oil spilled in a sandy aquifer. The test column, 5 cm in diameter and 0.75 m in length, is packed with sand having a median grain diameter of approximately 0.5 mm and porosity of 0.27. The sand was taken from a natural river bed; therefore, microbes-related biological process is expected to present. A mixture of feed solution containing conservative Cl and a surrogate biodegradable hydrocarbon is continuously pumped...
