Question

1- Depth of B.H ==> depth of borehole

2- Bearing capacity for the soil under the footing. ==> hansen equation 

3- Immediate settlement for the soil under footing. ==> Si 

4- Find the time required for 100% degree of consolidation

Circular foundation
diameter B = 2m
G.S.
1.0m
Sand
q = 150 kN/m
0.5m
W.T.
Sand
0.5m
Normally consolidated clay
5.0m
For the footing and soil profile shown in fig. above find
1- Depth of B.H
2- Bearing capacity for the soil under the footing
3- Immediate settlement for the soil under footing
4- Find the time required for 100% degree of consolidation
Note: assume any necessary information
