Answer All Please, really need it for exam. inwill like back [15) 3. Two lines of sheet pile walls are driven into a river bed to allow excavation of a trench. Water level in the trench is maintained at the bottiom of the excavation (level C-F) by pumping Elevations are as follows: Impervious layer (level E-G; datum): Oft Soil surface (level B-B') Water level & soil level in trench (C-F): 40t Water level in river (A-A'): 75 t Tip of...
Two undisturbed clay samples were taken from the middle of the overconsolidated and normally consolidated clay layers in the soil profile shown. The water table is at the top of the overconsolidated clay layer. Consolidation tests were carried out on the two samples and the results are summarized in the table below. Assume that the bulk, dry, and saturated unit weights of the sand are 16 kN/m3, 16 kN/m3 and 19 kN/m3, respectively. The specific gravity of the clay soil...
