Geotechnical Engineering-2

Example
Given:
A 12 m thick layer of Chicago clay is doubly drained. (This means that a
very pervious layer compared to the clay exists on top of and under the 12
m clay layer.) The coefficient of consolidation c, = 8.0 x 108 m²/s.
Required:
Find the degree or percent consolidation for the clay 5 yr after loading at
depths of 3, 6, 9, and 12 m.
