A Layer of sand 5m deep overlies a thick bed of clay. What is the total stress on a horizontal plane to a depth of 9 meters below the ground surface in the following cases: if the water table is at 2 meters below the ground level and the sand above remains saturated with capillary moisture? For sand, ysat = 20.9 KN/m3, for clay ysat = 17.8KN/m3 and y water = 9.807Kn/m3. Use only numerical numbers no units (1dp)
