Soil Mechanics and Foundation In the plate loading test for determining the bearing capacity of soil, the size of square bearing plate should be less than 300 mm between 300 mm and 750 mm between 750 mm and 1 m greater than 1 m less than 300 mm between 300 mm and 750 mm between 750 mm and 1 m greater than 1 m ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Which of the following statements is correct? A soil is said to be well graded if it has most of the particles of about the same size None of these For a well graded soil, both uniformity coefficient and coefficient of curvature are nearly unity. Uniformity coefficient represents the shape of the particle size distribution curve.
