25. Graphical Results in Staged Construction (Stage 2):  This screenshot can be compared with screenshot 24; it represents the second stage of loading.  Note that the initial condition (the thick red line) is much different than that for the first stage (screenshot 24).  It is the excess porewater pressure at the end of the previous loading stage superimposed by the induced extra load due to the placement of the next layer.
