A)Plot graphically all the vertical stresses, pore water and effective vertical stresses throughout the depth. B)How would the effective vertical stress value at the midpoint of the clay layer change if the groundwater level increased 2 m? (g = 10 m / s2)

In hydrology, when water flows down in a pore or crack of unsaturated soil due to gravity, the deep layer of soil is called seepage. It is the slow movement of water in the soil layer. Seepage is mainly found near hydraulic structures and is responsible …
