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 None of these 10 mm 20 mm 40 mm None of these 10 mm 20 mm 40 mm 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 In the triaxial compression test, the application of additional axial stress (i.e. deviator stress) on the soil specimen produces shear stress on horizontal plane only vertical plane only both horizontal and vertical planes all planes except horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only vertical plane only both horizontal and vertical planes all planes except horizontal and vertical planes ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation The effect of cohesion on a soil is to 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 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] increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce 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 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
