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° 0.05 N/mm² and 45° 0.5 N/mm² and 30° 0.05 N/mm² and 0° 0.2 N/mm² and 0° 0.05 N/mm² and 45° 0.5 N/mm² and 30° 0.05 N/mm² and 0° ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Which of the following statements is correct? Uniformity coefficient represents the shape of the particle size distribution curve. None of these For a well graded soil, both uniformity coefficient and coefficient of curvature are nearly unity. A soil is said to be well graded if it has most of the particles of about the same size Uniformity coefficient represents the shape of the particle size distribution curve. None of these For a well graded soil, both uniformity coefficient and coefficient of curvature are nearly unity. A soil is said to be well graded if it has most of the particles of about the same size ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
