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 0.5 N/mm² and 30° 0.05 N/mm² and 45° 0.2 N/mm² and 0° 0.05 N/mm² and 0° 0.5 N/mm² and 30° 0.05 N/mm² and 45° 0.2 N/mm² and 0° 0.05 N/mm² and 0° ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation The effect of cohesion on a soil is to reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
