Effective angle of shearing resistance is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil increases as the size of particles increases is limited to a maximum value of 45° increases as the soil gradation im-proves is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil increases as the size of particles increases is limited to a maximum value of 45° increases as the soil gradation im-proves ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation A normally consolidated clay settled 10 mm when effective stress was increased from 100 kN/m2 to 200 kN/ m2. If the effective stress is further increased from 200 kN/ m2 to 400 kN/ m2, then the settlement of the same clay is 10 mm None of these 40 mm 20 mm 10 mm None of these 40 mm 20 mm ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation A 600 mm square bearing plate settles by 15 mm in plate load test on a cohesionless soil under an intensity of loading of 0.2 N/ram2. The settlement of a prototype shallow footing 1 m square under the same intensity of loading is 25 mm greater than 25 mm between 15 mm and 25 mm 15 mm 25 mm greater than 25 mm between 15 mm and 25 mm 15 mm ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
