Soil Mechanics and Foundation Compressibility of sandy soils is much less than that of clayey soils None of these much greater than that of clayey soils almost equal to that of clayey soils much less than that of clayey soils None of these much greater than that of clayey soils almost equal to that of clayey soils ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation A tri-axial shear test is preferred to direct shear test, because Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform None of these It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform None of these It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation In a consolidated drained test on a normally consolidated clay, the volume of the soil sample during shear remains unchanged first increases and then decreases decreases increases remains unchanged first increases and then decreases decreases increases ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Which one of the following clays behaves like a dense sand ? normally consolidated clay over-consolidated clay with a low over-consolidation ratio under-consolidated clay over-consolidated ciay with a high over-consolidation ratio normally consolidated clay over-consolidated clay with a low over-consolidation ratio under-consolidated clay over-consolidated ciay with a high over-consolidation ratio ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Coefficient of compressibility is constant for any type 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 independent of type of soil but depends on the stress history of soil constant for any type 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 independent of type of soil but depends on the stress history of soil ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
