Soil Mechanics and Foundation Sensitivity of a soil can be defined as ratio of volume of voids to volume of solids ratio of compressive strength of unconfined undisturbed soil to that of soil in a remoulded state None of these percentage of volume change of soil under saturated condition ratio of volume of voids to volume of solids ratio of compressive strength of unconfined undisturbed soil to that of soil in a remoulded state None of these percentage of volume change of soil under saturated condition ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Coefficient of compressibility is different for different types of soils and also different 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 but same for a soil under different states of consolidation different for different types of soils and also different 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 but same for a soil under different states of consolidation ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
