A recently completed fill was 10 m thick and its initial average void ratio was 1.0. The fill was loaded on the surface by constructing an embankment covering a large area of the fill. Some months after the embankment was constructed, measurements of the fill indicated an average void ratio of 0.8. Calculate the compression of the fill.
