Soil Mechanics and Foundation Select the incorrect statement. Effective angle of shearing resistance is limited to a maximum value of 45° is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil increases as the soil gradation im-proves increases as the size of particles increases is limited to a maximum value of 45° is rarely more than 30° for fine grained soil increases as the soil gradation im-proves increases as the size of particles increases ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
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 reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase 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 reduce both the active earth pressure intensity and passive earth pressure intensity increase 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
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Due to a rise in temperature, the viscosity and the unit weight of the percolating fluid are reduced to 60% and 90% respectively. If other things remain constant, the coefficient of permeability increases by 25% increases by 50% increases by 33.3% decreases by 33.3% increases by 25% increases by 50% increases by 33.3% decreases by 33.3% ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
