Soil Mechanics and Foundation A tri-axial shear test is preferred to direct shear test, because 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 Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation In the triaxial compression test, the application of additional axial stress (i.e. deviator stress) on the soil specimen produces shear stress on horizontal plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only both horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only both horizontal and vertical planes ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
