Soil Mechanics and Foundation A cylindrical specimen of saturated soil failed under an axial vertical stress of 100kN/m2 when it was laterally unconfmed. The failure plane was inclined to the horizontal plane at an angle of 45°. The values of cohesion and angle of internal friction for the soil are respectively 0.2 N/mm² and 0° 0.5 N/mm² and 30° 0.05 N/mm² and 45° 0.05 N/mm² and 0° 0.2 N/mm² and 0° 0.5 N/mm² and 30° 0.05 N/mm² and 45° 0.05 N/mm² and 0° ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Shear strength of a soil is a unique function of effective stress only None of these both effective stress and total stress total stress only effective stress only None of these both effective stress and total stress total stress only ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Select the incorrect statement. Effective angle of shearing resistance is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil increases as the soil gradation im-proves is limited to a maximum value of 45° increases as the size of particles increases is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil increases as the soil gradation im-proves is limited to a maximum value of 45° increases as the size of particles increases ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
