Soil Mechanics and Foundation The major principal stress in an element of cohesion-less soil within the backfill of a retaining wall is None of these Inclined at 45° to the vertical plane Vertical if the soil is in an active state of plastic equilibrium Vertical if the soil is in a passive state of plastic equilibrium None of these Inclined at 45° to the vertical plane Vertical if the soil is in an active state of plastic equilibrium Vertical if the soil is in a passive state of plastic equilibrium ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation If the water table rises upto ground surface, then the total stress is increased due to decrease in pore water pressure but effective stress does not change effective stress is reduced due to decrease in total stress only but pore water pressure does not change total stress is reduced due to increase in pore water pressure only but effective stress does not change effective stress is reduced due to increase in pore water pressure only but total stress does not change total stress is increased due to decrease in pore water pressure but effective stress does not change effective stress is reduced due to decrease in total stress only but pore water pressure does not change total stress is reduced due to increase in pore water pressure only but effective stress does not change effective stress is reduced due to increase in pore water pressure only but total stress does not change ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP

Soil Mechanics and Foundation The effect of cohesion on a soil is to 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 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 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
