mpressible clay layer 10 m thick has an initial void ratio in situ of 1.026. Test and computations show the final void ratio of the clay layer after construction of a simple framed structure is 0.978 plus or minus 0.001. Determine the estimated primary consolidation settlement of the structure. Analyze total and differential settlement to be expected assuming one end settles to 0.979 and the other end settles to 0.977. Does this simple framed structure fall within the differential and/or maximum permissible settlement assuming a length between the footings of 25 m
