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° 0.05 N/mm² and 0° 0.5 N/mm² and 30° 0.2 N/mm² and 0° 0.05 N/mm² and 45° 0.05 N/mm² and 0° 0.5 N/mm² and 30° ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation The rise of water table below the foundation influences the bearing capacity of soil mainly by reducing effective unit weight of soil and effective angle of shearing resistance cohesion and effective angle of shearing resistance cohesion and effective unit weight of soil effective angle of shearing resistance effective unit weight of soil and effective angle of shearing resistance cohesion and effective angle of shearing resistance cohesion and effective unit weight of soil effective angle of shearing resistance ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation A tri-axial shear test is preferred to direct shear test, because Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform None of these Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform None of these Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
