Soil Mechanics and Foundation The ultimate consolidation settlement of a structure resting on a soil Decreases with the decrease in the plastic limit Increases with the decrease in the porosity of the soil Decreases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Increases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Decreases with the decrease in the plastic limit Increases with the decrease in the porosity of the soil Decreases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Increases with the increase in the initial voids ratio ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Terzaghi’s theory of one dimensional consolidation assumes Soil is homogeneous and fully saturated Water and soil particles are incompressible All listed here Deformation of the soil, is entirely due to change in volume Soil is homogeneous and fully saturated Water and soil particles are incompressible All listed here Deformation of the soil, is entirely due to change in volume ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation When the degree of saturation is zero, the soil mass under consideration represents one phase system two phase system with soil and air three phase system two phase system with soil and water one phase system two phase system with soil and air three phase system two phase system with soil and water ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
