A square foundation (4mx4m) shown below is located on a sand layer (117kN/m³). The results of the CPT test are shown on the figure. The gross load transferred to the soil via footing is 2144 kN (including footing weight). There is no ground water. Calculate the settlement 10 years after construction using Schmertmann's method (Take Es=2*qc). 2144 kN ac (kPa) 1 hpa = 1 kN/m² Sand Y = 17 kN/m³ 3m 1m Bedrock 2m 550 700 4m x 4m 850 2m
