A raft foundation of 30 m $$\times$$ 25 m is proposed to be constructed at a depth of 8 m in a sand layer. A 25 m thick saturated clay layer exists 2 m below the base of the raft foundation. Below the clay layer, a dense sand layer exists at the site. A 25 mm thick undisturbed sample was collected from the mid-depth of the clay layer and tested in a laboratory oedometer under double drainage condition. It was found that the soil sample had undergone 50% consolidation settlement in 10 minutes. The time (in days) required for 25% consolidation settlement of the raft foundation will be ___________. (round off to the nearest integer)
