Soil Mechanics and Foundation The rise of water table below the foundation influences the bearing capacity of soil mainly by reducing effective angle of shearing resistance effective unit weight of soil and effective angle of shearing resistance cohesion and effective unit weight of soil cohesion and effective angle of shearing resistance effective angle of shearing resistance effective unit weight of soil and effective angle of shearing resistance cohesion and effective unit weight of soil cohesion and effective angle of shearing resistance ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Due to a rise in temperature, the viscosity and the unit weight of the percolating fluid are reduced to 60% and 90% respectively.If other things remain constant, the coefficient of permeability increases by 50% increases by 33.3% increases by 25% decreases by 33.3% increases by 50% increases by 33.3% increases by 25% decreases by 33.3% ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation A plane inclined at an angle ‘φ’ to the horizontal at which the soil is expected to stay in the absence of any lateral support, is known as Natural slope line All listed here The φ line Repose line Natural slope line All listed here The φ line Repose line ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation In the triaxial compression test, the application of additional axial stress (i.e. deviator stress) on the soil specimen produces shear stress on both horizontal and vertical planes all planes except horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only vertical plane only both horizontal and vertical planes all planes except horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only vertical plane only ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
