Soil Mechanics and Foundation The ultimate consolidation settlement of a structure resting on a soil Decreases with the decrease in the plastic limit Decreases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Increases with the decrease in the porosity of the soil Increases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Decreases with the decrease in the plastic limit Decreases with the increase in the initial voids ratio Increases with the decrease in the porosity of the soil Increases with the increase in the initial voids ratio ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Soil Mechanics and Foundation A retaining wall 6m high supports a backfill with a surcharge angle of 10°. The back of the wall is inclined to the vertical at a positive batter angle of 5°. If the angle of wall friction is 7°, then the resultant active earth pressure will act at a distance of 2 m above the base and inclined to the horizontal at an angle of 10° 7° 12° 17° 10° 7° 12° 17° ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
