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 40 mm None of these 20 mm 10 mm 40 mm None of these 20 mm ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation A tri-axial shear test is preferred to direct shear test, because Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible None of these Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible None of these ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation In a triaxial compression test when drainage is allowed during the first stage (i. e. application of cell pressure) only and not during the second stage (i.e. application of deviator stress at constant cell pressure), the test is known as consolidated drained test unconsolidated drained test unconsolidated undrained test consolidated undrained test consolidated drained test unconsolidated drained test unconsolidated undrained test consolidated undrained test ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
