Q3c. The soil profile at a new construction site for a shallow foundation is shown in Figure Q3. Prior to construction, a uniformly distributed load of 120 kN/m² is applied to the surface of the soil. By using C, equal to 0.133C, Sand Y = 14 kN/m 3m Ground water table 3m Ysat = 18 kN/m Sand Yuat = 19 kN/m? Void ratio e = 0.8 3m Clay LL = 40 Sand Figure Q3
