Can
someone help me with foundation engineering?
The depth of water in a lake is 4 m. The soil at bottom of the lake consists of sandy clay. The water content of soil was determined to be 25.0%. The specific gravity of the soil grains is 2.70. Determine the void ratio and unit weight of the soil. What would be the total stress, effective stress, and pore water pressure at the 5 m depth into the bottom of the lake?...

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...

[Problems 1-4] The soil profile at a site for a proposed office building consists of a layer of fine sand 10.4 m thick above a layer of soft, normally consolidated clay 2 m thick. Below the soft clay is a deposit of coarse sand. The groundwater table was observed at 3 m below ground level. The void ratio of the sand is 0.76, and the water content of the clay is 43%. The building will impose a vertical stress increase...

18 A new petroleum storage tank is proposed at an oil refinery to be supported by a 20-meter diameter slab foundation at the ground surface. The structure will produce a uniform load of 110 kN/m2 on the entire slab foundation. A subsurface investigation has revealed the shown soil profile. A series of laboratory tests on representative samples obtained from the clay stratum has resulted in the...
