Question: 7 . 2 9 The time factor for a clay layer undergoing consolidation is 0 . 2 0 . What is the degree of consolidation

7.29 The time factor for a clay layer undergoing consolidation is 0.20. What is the degree of consolidation (consolidation ratio) at the center and at the quarter points (that is,zH=0.25 and 0.75)? What is the average degree of consolidation for the layer?
7.30 If the final consolidation settlement for the clay layer of Problem 7.291 is expected to be 3.7ft, how much settlement has occurred when the time factor is (a)0.35 and (b)0.75?
Please solve 7.30
