Soil Mechanics and Foundation In the plate loading test for determining the bearing capacity of soil, the size of square bearing plate should be between 750 mm and 1 m less than 300 mm between 300 mm and 750 mm greater than 1 m between 750 mm and 1 m less than 300 mm between 300 mm and 750 mm greater than 1 m ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation A 600 mm square bearing plate settles by 15 mm in plate load test on a cohesionless soil under an intensity of loading of 0.2 N/ram2. The settlement of a prototype shallow footing 1 m square under the same intensity of loading is 25 mm 15 mm between 15 mm and 25 mm greater than 25 mm 25 mm 15 mm between 15 mm and 25 mm greater than 25 mm ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
