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=1.5x10-612/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 settlement at 90% consolidation? 4p = 1 ksf Sand 8 feet y = 110 pet, Water Table 7 feet Vsar - 115 pef Clay w=34%, LL = 50%, son = 120 pef 17 feet O A.3.37 inches O B.2.4 inches O C.4.24 inches OD.3.02 inches
