Soil Mechanics and Foundation When the plastic limit of a soil is greater than the liquid limit, then the plasticity index is reported as zero non-plastic (NP) negative 1 zero non-plastic (NP) negative 1 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation If the water table rises upto ground surface, then the effective stress is reduced due to increase in pore water pressure only but total 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 increased due to decrease in pore water pressure but effective stress 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 effective stress is reduced due to decrease in total stress only but pore water pressure does not change total stress is increased due to decrease in pore water pressure but effective stress does not change total stress is reduced due to increase in pore water pressure only but effective stress does not change 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 all planes except horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only both horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only both horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
