Question 1) For a shallow foundation measuring (1.7 m × 2.2 m) as shown below: , A. Estimate the elastic settlement proposed by Mayerhof. Then, B. Estimate the elastic settlement proposed by Bowles, if the water table rises 1.5 m. Then, C. Estimate the primary consolidation settlement; when the bottom sandy layer is replacing with a 5 m thickness of a clay layer. Noting that, the propertiės of the clay are the same for the bottom sandy soil. Use yw=10 kN/m³ qnet= 1.2 MN/m2 G.S 1.5 m Sand Ya=16 kN/m3 Ysat= 17 kN/m3 %3D 2.5 m N60=52 V W.T.
