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 10 mm None of these 20 mm 40 mm 10 mm None of these 20 mm 40 mm ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
