Figure 9.11 Soil profile for Example 9.2. 9.21. Develop a plot of σz,u, and σz′ vs. depth for the soil profile in Figure 9.11. Consider depths from 0 to 10 m, assume hydrostatic conditions are present, and assume u=0 above the groundwater table. Plot depth, z, on the vertical axis, with zero at the top and increasing downward. 9.20.
Question: 9.5 Consider the soil profile shown in Figure 9.26: . a. Calculate the variations of o, u, and o' at points A, B, and C. Figure 9.26 b. How high should the groundwater table rise so that the effective stress at C is 111 kN/m22 A cut is made in a stiff, saturated clay that is underlain by a layer of sand (Figure 9.6).

2.5 Figure 12.42 shows a soil profile. The uniformly distributed load on the ground surface is Δσ. Given: Δσ =1000lb/ft2, H 1 =8ft,H 2 =15ft, and H 3 =17ft. Also, Sand: γdry = 110lb/ft3,γsat =115lb/ft3 Clay: γsat= 120lb/ft3,LL=50,e=0.9 Estimate the primary consolidation if a. The clay is normally consolidated b.
