Soil Mechanics and Foundation For a loose sand sample and a dense sand sample consolidated to the same effective stress ultimate strength is same but peak ultimate strength is different but peak strength is same ultimate strength is same and also peak strength is same ultimate strength is same but peak strength of dense sand is greater than that of loose sand ultimate strength is same but peak ultimate strength is different but peak strength is same ultimate strength is same and also peak strength is same ultimate strength is same but peak strength of dense sand is greater than that of loose sand 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 remains constant at all liquid limits increases with increase in liquid limit decreases with increase in liquid limit first increases and then decreases with increase in liquid limit remains constant at all liquid limits increases with increase in liquid limit ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation The effect of cohesion on a soil is to reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
