m Q.2. A rectangular foundation of size 2 by 2.5 m is constructed at a depth of D= (1.5+ m below the ground surface as shown (where X is your group number). The foundation carries a load of 800 kN. The thickness of the clay layer is shown in the table below according to your group number). Use 2:1 method to find the stress increment. (2:1 means 2 vertical : 1 horizontal). a) Compute the settlement due to the consolidation of the clay. Assume the clay as one layer. b) Repeat (a) by dividing the clay layer into two equal sublayers. X = 4 c) Write comments on your results in (a) and (b). 800 KN D1 4 m y. 1.5 m Ground surface Fine SAND 19 kN/m 19.81 kN/m 2 m by 2.5 m.
