A soil profile consists of a clay layer underlain by a sand layer, as shown in figure. If a tube is inserted into the bottom sand layer and the water level rises to 1m above the ground surface, determined the vertical effective stresses and porewater pressures at A, B, and C. if ko is 0.5, determine the effective and total lateral stresses at A, B, and C. what is the value of the value of the porewater pressure at A...
1. (25 points) The soil profile at a site consists of a layer of fine sand 5 m thick above a layer of clay 4 m thick. Below the clay is a layer of impermeable rock. The groundwater table was observed at 2 m below ground level. The unit weight of the sand above and below the water table is 20 KN/m'. The water content of the clay is 25% and its dry unit weight is 15 KN/m'. The compression...

e3 shows the soil profile (sand-clay-sand) at the site of a warehouse that causes a surface ding of 100 kPa. (pw= 1000 kg/m; g 9.81 m/s2) on 4 (25 marks) A clay sample was cored at 7 m depth (middle of the clay layer). Based on laboratory test data, it was found that the clay was over-consolidated with OCR = 2.5 (before applying surface loading), compression index Ce 0.44 and recompression index C. = 0.1. The consolidation coefficient of clay...
In the figure below, the natural soil profile consists of sand overlying clay overlying sand overlying bedrock. A water table is present 1 m beneath the surface of the natural ground. If 4 m of consistent fill material (γfill = 15 kN/m3) was placed on top of this soil profile that covered a large area, determine: (a) The consolidation settlement of the clay layer (using 4 equal layers in your calculation), and (b) The time (in days) for this consolidation...
