Soil Mechanics and Foundation The major principal stress in an element of cohesion-less soil within the backfill of a retaining wall is Inclined at 45° to the vertical plane Vertical if the soil is in an active state of plastic equilibrium None of these Vertical if the soil is in a passive state of plastic equilibrium Inclined at 45° to the vertical plane Vertical if the soil is in an active state of plastic equilibrium None of these Vertical if the soil is in a passive state of plastic equilibrium ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation The effect of cohesion on a soil is to increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Effective stress on soil Increases both voids ratio and permeability Decreases both voids ratio and permeability Increases voids ratio and decreases permeability Decreases voids ratio and increases permeability Increases both voids ratio and permeability Decreases both voids ratio and permeability Increases voids ratio and decreases permeability Decreases voids ratio and increases permeability ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
