The soil profile at a site up to a depth of $10\:m$ is shown in the figure ( not drawn to the scale). The soil is preloaded with a uniform surcharge (q) of $70\:kN/m^2$ at the ground level. The water table is at a depth of $3\:m$ below ground level. The soil unit weight ... $kPa$) at points $P$ and $Q$, respectively, are $124$ and $204$ $36$ and $ 90$ $36$ and $126$ $54$ and $95$
