Soil Mechanics and Foundation A 600 mm square bearing plate settles by 15 mm in plate load test on a cohesionless soil under an intensity of loading of 0.2 N/ram2. The settlement of a prototype shallow footing 1 m square under the same intensity of loading is between 15 mm and 25 mm greater than 25 mm 15 mm 25 mm between 15 mm and 25 mm greater than 25 mm 15 mm 25 mm ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
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 all planes except horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only both horizontal and vertical planes vertical plane only all planes except horizontal and vertical planes horizontal plane only ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Effective stress on soil Decreases both voids ratio and permeability Increases voids ratio and decreases permeability Decreases voids ratio and increases permeability Increases both voids ratio and permeability Decreases both voids ratio and permeability Increases voids ratio and decreases permeability Decreases voids ratio and increases permeability Increases both voids ratio and permeability ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
