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 vertical plane only both horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only both horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation For a loose sand sample and a dense sand sample consolidated to the same effective stress ultimate strength is same but peak ultimate strength is same but peak strength of dense sand is greater than that of loose sand ultimate strength is same and also peak strength is same ultimate strength is different but peak strength is same ultimate strength is same but peak ultimate strength is same but peak strength of dense sand is greater than that of loose sand ultimate strength is same and also peak strength is same ultimate strength is different but peak strength is same ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation If the material of the base of the Casagrande liquid limit device on which the cup containing soil paste drops is softer than the standard hard rubber, then The liquid limit of soil always increases The liquid limit of soil may decrease The liquid limit of soil may increase The liquid limit of soil always decreases The liquid limit of soil always increases The liquid limit of soil may decrease The liquid limit of soil may increase The liquid limit of soil always decreases ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation If the plasticity index of a soil mass is zero, the soil is silt clay sand clayey silt silt clay sand clayey silt ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Coefficient of consolidation for clays normally increases with increase in liquid limit decreases with increase in liquid limit first increases and then decreases with increase in liquid limit remains constant at all liquid limits increases with increase in liquid limit decreases with increase in liquid limit first increases and then decreases with increase in liquid limit remains constant at all liquid limits ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation The effect of cohesion on a soil is to 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 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] 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 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] ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
