240 kN 1.5 x 3 m Elevation 205 m Ydry=17.5 kN/m; w=20% Elevation 204 m Fill Ysat=18 kN/m Clayey soil Elevation 200 m Gs=2.65; w=10%; e=0.8 Elevation 199 m Sandy soil Use to the 2:1 method to determine the increase in stress in the mid-layer of the clayey soil layer due to the construction of the foundation shown. The specifications require the increase to be limited to 5 kPa. Is this requirement satisfied? If not, provide a detailed solution.
