A long embankment 30 m wide is to be built on ground. The net vertical pressure applied by the embankment (assumed to be uniformly distributed) is 90kpa. The soil profile and stress distribution beneath the center of the embankment is also shown. The value of mv for the upper clay is 0.35m2/MN, and for the lower clay mv=0.13m2/MN. Tthe permeabilities of the cllays are 10-10m/s and 10-11m/s for the upper and lower soil respectively. Determine the final settlement under the center of the embankment due to consolidation
