Slightly overconsolidated clay is located 15 ft below the surface (OCR=1.3). The Cc and Cs of the clay are 0.25 and 0.05, respectively, and Cv=1.5x10-6 ft/min The initial void ratio is 0.45. Please calculate the consolidation settlement. Assuming intact rock underneath clay, i.e. the rock underneath cannot provide drainage path. (Cs=Cw). What is the primary consolidation settlement? (using the stress increase at the middle of the clay layer as the average stress increase of the clay layer) 4p = 1 ksf Sand 8 feet 7 = 110 per Water Table 7 feet 'sar - 115 pcf Clay w = 34%, LL = 50%.
