Referring to the foundation settlement information summarized by the Burland studies (Figure 4), estimate the settlements expected for the following foundations, assuming that the supporting sand deposit is medium-dense to loose:
(a) Square foundation 2 m by 2 m, q = 200 kPa
(b) Long foundation 1.5 m wide, q = 150 kpa
(c) Square foundation 4.5 ft by 4.5 ft, q = 4 ksf
