3. (a) Draw a typical one-dimensional soil consolidation curve for a given load increment, label the different stages of the (40 marks) consolidation process and explain each one of these stages. 1 NE DT024/3 DT02773 14990 CIVL 3802 15057 CIVL 3802 (b) The following values were obtained from an oedometer test on a sample of clay: d'. (kPa) Void ratio, e 0 2.11 25 2.08 30 1.99 100 1.85 200 1.61 400 1.33 800 1.11 You are asked to: (i) Plot the e vs log o' curve. (60 marks) Estimate the compression index Ce Estimate the preconsolidation pressure o Remember that: eo - ei Cc log Total marks for question 3 100 marks
