Soil Mechanics and Foundation A tri-axial shear test is preferred to direct shear test, because Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform None of these Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform None of these Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control 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 horizontal plane only both horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only both horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation For a loose sand sample and a dense sand sample consolidated to the same effective stress ultimate strength is same but peak strength of dense sand is greater than that of loose sand ultimate strength is same and also peak strength is same ultimate strength is different but peak strength is same ultimate strength is same but peak ultimate strength is same but peak strength of dense sand is greater than that of loose sand ultimate strength is same and also peak strength is same ultimate strength is different but peak strength is same ultimate strength is same but peak ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
