Soil Mechanics and Foundation Select the incorrect statement. Effective angle of shearing resistance is limited to a maximum value of 45° increases as the soil gradation im-proves increases as the size of particles increases is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil is limited to a maximum value of 45° increases as the soil gradation im-proves increases as the size of particles increases is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
