Soil Mechanics and Foundation A tri-axial shear test is preferred to direct shear test, because It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control None of these Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control None of these Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Terzaghi’s theory of one dimensional consolidation assumes Soil is homogeneous and fully saturated All listed here Water and soil particles are incompressible Deformation of the soil, is entirely due to change in volume Soil is homogeneous and fully saturated All listed here Water and soil particles are incompressible Deformation of the soil, is entirely due to change in volume ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation In the triaxial compression test, the application of additional axial stress (i.e. deviator stress) on the soil specimen produces shear stress on vertical plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes both horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only vertical plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes both horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
