In general, the total settlement of the foundation is the sum of primary consolidation settlement, secondary consolidation settlement and ___________________ settlement.

A foundation has a depth of 20 feet and a width of 4 feet. Based on the depth of embedment to width ratio, this foundation is categorized as a? 

Assuming Layer 3 in the cross-section shown below is normally consolidated clay, compute the approximate primary consolidation settlement given the following information: H1 = 5 feet H2 = 7 feet H3 = 4 feet  Cc = 0.3 e0 = 0.22 Effective stress at the top of the clay layer = 1,150 psf Effective stress at the mid-point of the clay layer = 1,240 psf Change in effective stress = 500 psf (Use the appropriate settlement equation)
