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 both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] reduce the active earth pressure in-tensity but to increase the passive earth pressure intensity increase both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase the active earth pressure in-tensity but to reduce the passive earth pressure intensity [GATE 99] ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
