Soil Mechanics and Foundation In the triaxial compression test, the application of additional axial stress (i.e. deviator stress) on the soil specimen produces shear stress on both horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only horizontal plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes both horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only horizontal plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Coefficient of compressibility is constant for any type 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 independent of type of soil but depends on the stress history of soil constant for any type 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 independent of type of soil but depends on the stress history of soil ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
