2) Consider the soil profile shown below subjected to the uniformly distributed load,

? ?

, on the ground surface. Given:

? ? = 930 lb / ft^{2}, H_{1} = 4.5 ft, H_{2} = 9 ft

, and

H_{3} = 16 ft

. Soil characteristics are: Sand:

?_{d} = 115 lb / ft^{3} ?_{sat} = 123 lb / ft^{3}

Clay:

?_{sat} = 119 lb / ft^{3}, e_{0} = 0.71, C_{c} = 0.33

, and

C_{R} = 0.065

Estimate the primary consolidation settlement of the clay in inches, if a. The clay is normally consolidated (NC) b. The clay is overconsolidated and the preconsolidation pressure,

?_{p}^{?} = 2, 000 lb / ft^{2}
