Question:

A soil has the following profile with depth: The water table is at a depth of 10 ft. Plot the total stress, effective stresses, and pore pressure versus depth. Show all of your calculations. Assume that there is no capillarity.
0 - 10 ft......................................... γt = 110 pcf
10 - 25 ft......................................... γt = 95 pcf
25 - 50 ft......................................... γt = 113 pcf
