In a site reclamation project 2.5 m of graded fill with V=22k N/m3 were laid in compacted layers over an existing layer of the silty clay with

V=18k N/m3 which was 3 m thick. This was underlain by a 2m thick layer of gravel (with γ=20k N/m3). Assuming that the water table remains at the surface of the silty clay, draw the effective stress profile for the case: (i) Before the fill is placed (ii) After the fill has been placed
