The following data were obtained from a consolidation test on an undisturbed clay sample: The average value

Question:

The following data were obtained from a consolidation test on an undisturbed clay sample: The average value of the coefficient of permeability of the clay in this pressure increment range is 9.2 x 10-8 cm/s. Compute and plot the decrease in thickness with time for a 12 m layer of this clay which is drained.σ1 = 140 kPa, e1 = 0.912 σ2 = 280 kPa, e2 = 0.749
