Soil Mechanics and Foundation Select the incorrect statement. Effective angle of shearing resistance increases as the size of particles increases increases as the soil gradation im-proves is limited to a maximum value of 45° is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil increases as the size of particles increases increases as the soil gradation im-proves is limited to a maximum value of 45° is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation For better strength and stability, the fine grained soils and coarse grained soils are compacted respectively as wet of OMC and dry of OMC dry of OMC and wet of OMC wet of OMC and wet of OMC dry of OMC and dry of OMC where OMC is optimum moisture content wet of OMC and dry of OMC dry of OMC and wet of OMC wet of OMC and wet of OMC dry of OMC and dry of OMC where OMC is optimum moisture content ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
