A continuous foundation on a deposit of sand layer is shown in below along with the variation of the cone penetration resistance qc. Assuming =18 kN/m3 and the creep is at the end of 10 years after construction, calculate the elastic settlement of the foundation using the strain influence factor method. Use equations in the figure.
