Soil Mechanics and Foundation The maximum dry density upto which any soil can be compacted depends upon amount of compaction energy only None of these both moisture content and amount of compaction energy moisture content only amount of compaction energy only None of these both moisture content and amount of compaction energy moisture content only 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 10 mm 40 mm None of these 20 mm 10 mm 40 mm None of these ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation With the increase in the amount of compaction energy optimum water content increases but maximum dry density decreases both optimum water content and maximum dry density decrease[ES 93] both optimum water content and maximum dry density increase optimum water content decreases but maximum dry density increases optimum water content increases but maximum dry density decreases both optimum water content and maximum dry density decrease[ES 93] both optimum water content and maximum dry density increase optimum water content decreases but maximum dry density increases ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
