Soil Mechanics and Foundation Sensitivity of a soil can be defined as 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 None of these percentage of volume change of soil under saturated condition 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 None of these percentage of volume change of soil under saturated condition ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
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 20 mm 40 mm 10 mm None of these 20 mm 40 mm 10 mm None of these 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 vertical plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only both horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only both horizontal and vertical planes ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
