Soil Mechanics and Foundation The major principal stress in an element of cohesion-less soil within the backfill of a retaining wall is Vertical if the soil is in an active state of plastic equilibrium Inclined at 45° to the vertical plane Vertical if the soil is in a passive state of plastic equilibrium None of these Vertical if the soil is in an active state of plastic equilibrium Inclined at 45° to the vertical plane Vertical if the soil is in a passive state of plastic equilibrium None of these ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Select the incorrect statement. Effective angle of shearing resistance is limited to a maximum value of 45° increases as the soil gradation im-proves increases as the size of particles increases is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil is limited to a maximum value of 45° increases as the soil gradation im-proves increases as the size of particles increases is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
