At a reclamation site, there is a 3.7-m thick layer of clay, sandwiched between two highly permeable sand layers. The final consolidation settlement in the clay has been determined to be 482 mm. Provided the coefficient of consolidation, cv of 1.91 m²/year, what would be the settlement (in mm) after time of 1.3 months? (ignore correction for construction time).
