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 None of these Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control None of these Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation A retaining wall 6m high supports a backfill with a surcharge angle of 10°. The back of the wall is inclined to the vertical at a positive batter angle of 5°. If the angle of wall friction is 7°, then the resultant active earth pressure will act at a distance of 2 m above the base and inclined to the horizontal at an angle of 10° 7° 17° 12° 10° 7° 17° 12° ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
