Soil Mechanics and Foundation Sensitivity of a soil can be defined as ratio of compressive strength of unconfined undisturbed soil to that of soil in a remoulded state percentage of volume change of soil under saturated condition None of these ratio of volume of voids to volume of solids ratio of compressive strength of unconfined undisturbed soil to that of soil in a remoulded state percentage of volume change of soil under saturated condition None of these ratio of volume of voids to volume of solids ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation The effect of cohesion on a soil is to 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] reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
