Refer to Problem 12.6. Given: c v = 2.8 3 10 6 m 2 /min. How long
Question:
Refer to Problem 12.6. Given: cv = 2.8 3 10–6 m2/min. How long will it take for 60% consolidation to occur?
Data From Problem 12.6
Refer to Figure 12.42. Given: H1 = 2.5 m, H2 = 2.5 m,
H3 = 3m, and Δσ = 100 kN/m2. Also,
Sand: e = 0.64, Gs = 2.65
Clay: e = 0.9, Gs = 2.75, LL = 55
Estimate the primary consolidation settlement of the clay layer assuming that it is normally consolidated.

I graduated in 2018 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Dalubhasaan ng Lungsod ng San Pablo. I tutored students in classes and out of classes. I use a variety of strategies to tutor students that include: lecture, discussions about the subject matter, problem solving examples using the principles of the subject matter being discussed in class , homework assignments that are directed towards reinforcing what we learn in class , and detailed practice problems help students to master a concept. I also do thorough research on Internet resources or textbooks so that I know what students need to learn in order to master what is being taught in class .
