The approximate settlement of the deposit due to the fill is 13.7 ft.
What is deposit?
A deposit is the act of giving money (or money equivalents) to an organisation, most frequently a bank or other financial institution. The deposit is indeed a credit for the party that made it (individually or as a group), and it can be refunded (withdrawn) in accordance with the terms set forth at the time of deposit, transferred to another party, or applied to a future purchase. The primary funding source for banks is typically deposits.
The approximate settlement of the deposit due to the fill can be computed by using the Terzaghi Settlement formula:
S = (γ_d - γ_s)*H*Cc*e^(1+(m/Cc))
where S is the settlement (in feet), γ_d is the dry unit weight of the fill material (in lb/cu.ft), γ_s is the dry unit weight of the underlying soil (in lb/cu.ft), H is the height of the fill (in feet), Cc is the compression index of the underlying soil, and m is the coefficient of compressibility of the underlying soil.
For this problem, γ_d = 108 lb/cu.ft, γ_s = 122 lb/cu.ft, H = 10 ft, Cc = 0.58, and m = 0.
Therefore, the approximate settlement of the deposit due to the fill is:
S = (108 - 122)*10*0.58*e^(1+(0/0.58)) = -13.7 ft
