A continuous foundation on a deposit of sand layer is shown in Figure P9.10 along with the variation of the cone penetration resistance q_c. Assuming λ = 18 kN/m³ and creep is at the end of ten years after construction, calculate the elastic settlement of the foundation using the strain influence factor method. Use Eqs. (9.30) and (9.31).
