The surface of a saturated clay deposit is located permanently below the groundwater table. The clay has a natural water content of 43% and a specific gravity of 2.70. Taking the unit weight of water as 9.81 kN/m3, the vertical intergranular (effective) pressure at a depth of 11 meters is approximately:
- 136.41 kN/m2
- 243.56 kN/m2
- 372.62 kN/m2
- 484.92 kN/m2✓
Correct answer
84.92 kN/m2
