Soil Mechanics and Foundation The effect of cohesion on a soil is to reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity 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 10 mm 40 mm 20 mm None of these 10 mm 40 mm 20 mm None of these ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation The ultimate consolidation settlement of a soil is directly proportional to the voids ratio inversely proportional to the compression index directly proportional to the compression index None of these directly proportional to the voids ratio inversely proportional to the compression index directly proportional to the compression index None of these ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation In a deposit of normally consolidated clay effective stress and undrained strength increase with depth but water content decreases with depth effective stress increases with depth but water content of soil and un-drained strength decrease with depth effective stress, water content and undrained strength decrease with depth effective stress and water content increase with depth but undrained strength decreases with depth effective stress and undrained strength increase with depth but water content decreases with depth effective stress increases with depth but water content of soil and un-drained strength decrease with depth effective stress, water content and undrained strength decrease with depth effective stress and water content increase with depth but undrained strength decreases with depth ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
