Determine the coefficient of compressibility, Civil Engineering

Assignment Help:

A saturated clay layer 4 m thick is located 6 m below GL. The void ratio of the clay is 1.0. When a raft foundation is located at 2 m below GL, the stresses at the top and bottom of the clay layer enhanced by 150 and 100 kN/m2 respectively. Calculate the consolidation settlement if the coefficient of compressibility 0.002 cm2/N
