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 consolidated drained test consolidated undrained test unconsolidated undrained test unconsolidated drained test consolidated drained test consolidated undrained test unconsolidated undrained test unconsolidated drained test 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 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 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 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
