a. Considering No seepage (no water flow), plot separate diagrams for vertical total stress (ov), water pressure (us) and vertical effective stress (o) for the given soil profile. b. Refer to the figure below considering the seepage effect. plot separate diagrams for vertical total stress (ov), pressure head (hp), water pressure (us) and vertical effective stress (ov). c. What is the type of the upward water flow? d. Determine the values of the coefficients of permeability K, and K₂ e. Determine the amount of water seepage (q) through the clay layer #1. 6 ft 10 ft Ground Surface y = 120pcf 10 ft k₁ Y = 100pcf 20 ft K₂ Piezometers A B 1 2 C q Fig. 2 Soil Profile
