Question 1
Part A
Solution:
· The site is located in west Scramento near a rive
· the Soil type is ‘ leeve and channel deposits’
· The side is nearer to the meandering river and these rivers form levees of alluvial sand of grain type fine grained alluvial sand
Part B
· The natural soil deposit is levee and channel deposits
· The site is nearer to the Scramento river opposite to the chicory bend
· Due to the flowing river levees formed at its bank of soil type sand
Part C
I. The specific gravity of sand lies between 2.65-2.70 Since it is of alluvial type and have coarse size its specific gravity will be nearer to 2.65 so the apparent density of this is 2.65*9.81 =25.99kN/m2
II. Since the relative density lies in the range 15- 35% So it will be in loose packing state
III. Comparison with 85% relative density soil
· Since in loose state so strength will be less
· Settlement will be high
· Permeability will be high because loose state gives rise to large number of void so increses permeability
Question 3
· The ground surface elevation is 12.54 ft and the water surface elevation is 5.24 ft in 2005 recorded by the well.
· So the ground water depth is 12.54-5.24 ft =7.3ft
· The ground...
