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 None of these 40 mm 20 mm 10 mm None of these 40 mm ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation A tri-axial shear test is preferred to direct shear test, because Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible None of these It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control Stress distribution on the failure plane, is non uniform Precise measurement of pore pressure and change in volume during test, is not possible None of these It can be performed under all three drainage conditions with complete control ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
