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 40 mm 20 mm 10 mm None of these 40 mm 20 mm 10 mm None of these ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Select the incorrect statement. Effective angle of shearing resistance increases as the size of particles increases is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil increases as the soil gradation im-proves is limited to a maximum value of 45° increases as the size of particles increases is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil increases as the soil gradation im-proves is limited to a maximum value of 45° ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Coefficient of earth pressure at rest is greater than active earth pressure but less than passive earth pressure less than both the active and passive earth pressures less than active earth pressure but greater than passive earth pressure greater than both the active earth pressure and passive earth pressure greater than active earth pressure but less than passive earth pressure less than both the active and passive earth pressures less than active earth pressure but greater than passive earth pressure greater than both the active earth pressure and passive earth pressure 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 both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
