Soil Mechanics and Foundation Due to a rise in temperature, the viscosity and the unit weight of the percolating fluid are reduced to 60% and 90% respectively.If other things remain constant, the coefficient of permeability increases by 33.3% increases by 50% increases by 25% decreases by 33.3% increases by 33.3% increases by 50% increases by 25% decreases by 33.3% ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Effective stress is All of these the stress at particles contact a physical parameter that can be measured important because it is a function of engineering properties of soil All of these the stress at particles contact a physical parameter that can be measured important because it is a function of engineering properties of soil ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation If the water table rises upto ground surface, then the effective stress is reduced due to decrease in total stress only but pore water pressure does not change effective stress is reduced due to increase in pore water pressure only but total stress does not change total stress is increased due to decrease in pore water pressure but effective stress does not change total stress is reduced due to increase in pore water pressure only but effective stress does not change effective stress is reduced due to decrease in total stress only but pore water pressure does not change effective stress is reduced due to increase in pore water pressure only but total stress does not change total stress is increased due to decrease in pore water pressure but effective stress does not change total stress is reduced due to increase in pore water pressure only but effective stress does not change ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Clay layer A with single drainage and coefficient of consolidation Cv takes 6 months to achieve 50% consolidation. The time taken by clay layer B of the same thickness with double drainage and coefficient of consolidation Cv/2 to achieve the same degree of consolidation is 3 months 24 months 12 months 6 months 3 months 24 months 12 months 6 months ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Coefficient of compressibility is independent of type of soil but depends on the stress history of soil different for different types of soils but same for a soil under different states of consolidation different for different types of soils and also different for a soil under different states of consolidation constant for any type of soil independent of type of soil but depends on the stress history of soil different for different types of soils but same for a soil under different states of consolidation different for different types of soils and also different for a soil under different states of consolidation constant for any type of soil ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
