Answer:
d) 9.55 psi
Explanation:
pressure at the bottom is =ρgh
weight density is ρg=55 lb/ft³
h=25ft
pressure at the bottom is =
=1375psf
1 ft = 12 inch
pressure at bottom =
= 9.55 psi
so, answer will be option (d) which is 9.55 psi
Answer:
The settlement that is expected is 1.043 meters.
Explanation:
Since the pre-consolidation stress of the layer is equal to the effective stress hence we conclude that the soil is normally consolidated soil
The settlement due to increase in the effective stress of a normally consolidated soil mass is given by the formula

where
'H' is the initial depth of the layer
is the Compression index
is the inital void ratio
is the initial effective stress at the depth
is the change in the effective stress at the given depth
Applying the given values we get
