Soil Mechanics and Foundation Coefficient of compressibility is different for different types of soils but same for a soil under different states of consolidation constant for any type of soil independent of type of soil but depends on the stress history of soil different for different types of soils and also different for a soil under different states of consolidation different for different types of soils but same for a soil under different states of consolidation constant for any type of soil independent of type of soil but depends on the stress history of soil different for different types of soils and also different for a soil under different states of consolidation 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 size of particles increases is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil increases as the soil gradation im-proves is limited to a maximum value of 45° increases as the size of particles increases is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil increases as the soil gradation im-proves ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation The ultimate consolidation settlement of a structure resting on a soil Increases with the decrease in the porosity of the soil Decreases with the decrease in the plastic limit Increases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Decreases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Increases with the decrease in the porosity of the soil Decreases with the decrease in the plastic limit Increases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Decreases with the increase in the initial voids ratio ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation If the material of the base of the Casagrande liquid limit device on which the cup containing soil paste drops is softer than the standard hard rubber, then The liquid limit of soil may increase The liquid limit of soil always increases The liquid limit of soil always decreases The liquid limit of soil may decrease The liquid limit of soil may increase The liquid limit of soil always increases The liquid limit of soil always decreases The liquid limit of soil may decrease ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Coefficient of consolidation for clays normally decreases with increase in liquid limit first increases and then decreases with increase in liquid limit increases with increase in liquid limit remains constant at all liquid limits decreases with increase in liquid limit first increases and then decreases with increase in liquid limit increases with increase in liquid limit remains constant at all liquid limits ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
