Part II (70 points) Problem #1 (15 points) The following data were recorded during a dilatometer test conducted in a clay deposit where the ground water table was located at a depth of 3 m below the ground surface. Depth of test - 8 m below the surface; Contact pressure (Po) = 250 kN/m²; Expansion stress (P) = 380 kN/m² Given: Ya = 16.5 kN/m'. Ysat = 18.5 kN/m', and pls = 0.35. Determine the following: (a) Coefficient of at-rest earth pressure (b) Overconsolidation ratio (c) Modulus of elasticity Solution
