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 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 both horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only horizontal plane only ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
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
