Soil Mechanics and Foundation In a deposit of normally consolidated clay effective stress and undrained strength increase with depth but water content decreases with depth effective stress increases with depth but water content of soil and un-drained strength decrease with depth effective stress and water content increase with depth but undrained strength decreases with depth effective stress, water content and undrained strength decrease with depth effective stress and undrained strength increase with depth but water content decreases with depth effective stress increases with depth but water content of soil and un-drained strength decrease with depth effective stress and water content increase with depth but undrained strength decreases with depth effective stress, water content and undrained strength decrease with depth ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation A normally consolidated clay settled 10 mm when effective stress was increased from 100 kN/m2 to 200 kN/ m2. If the effective stress is further increased from 200 kN/ m2 to 400 kN/ m2, then the settlement of the same clay is 20 mm 40 mm 10 mm None of these 20 mm 40 mm 10 mm None of these ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
