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...

For the soil strata, draw diagrams indicating the total stress, pore pressure and effective stress profiles to the bottom of clay layer. Fine sand has a thickness of 6 m (FST) with saturated unit weight of 18 kN/m2. Clay has a thickness of 8 m with saturated unit weight of 14 kN/m3 The water table is located at depth of 0.7 of fine sand thickness below the ground surface (i.e. depth=0.7*FST). Fine sand will sustain capillarity (suction). Assume the same...

6. (former exam question) A large granular free draining fill 6-ft thick was placed on a 15-ft thick layer of clay as shown in the figure below. A piezometer was installed at the midpoint of the clay layer. The water table is at the original ground surface. Three years after the placement of the fill, the piezometer reads 7.63 ft above the ground water level. Answer the following questions: a. What percentage of the total consolidation for the entire clay...
