Soil Mechanics and Foundation The ultimate consolidation settlement of a structure resting on a soil Increases with the decrease in the porosity of the soil Decreases with the decrease in the plastic limit Decreases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Increases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Increases with the decrease in the porosity of the soil Decreases with the decrease in the plastic limit Decreases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Increases with the increase in the initial voids ratio ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation In a triaxial compression test when drainage is allowed during the first stage (i. e. application of cell pressure) only and not during the second stage (i.e. application of deviator stress at constant cell pressure), the test is known as unconsolidated undrained test consolidated undrained test consolidated drained test unconsolidated drained test unconsolidated undrained test consolidated undrained test consolidated drained test unconsolidated drained test ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Terzaghi’s theory of one dimensional consolidation assumes Soil is homogeneous and fully saturated All listed here Water and soil particles are incompressible Deformation of the soil, is entirely due to change in volume Soil is homogeneous and fully saturated All listed here Water and soil particles are incompressible Deformation of the soil, is entirely due to change in volume ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
