Problem $6$: Figure $4$ shows the consolidation versus time for one of the increments of the consol$-$

idation test described before.

Determine the condition $($i$.$e$.$ dial gauge reading$)$ at $U=0\%.$

Determine the condition at $U=100\%.$

Determine $C_E$ for this sample. The sample height is approximately $0\mathrm{.}8$ in$.$

What is the progression of settlement with time? Submit a table and summary plot of the time

versus settlement, increasing the average degree of settlement from $0-100$ at $10\%$ intervals

until $90\%.$ Include $95\%$ and $99\%$ on your figure$/$table$.$
