Problem 3 solved, Water content and void ratio in soil
Water content and void ratio in soil: Question Three A sample of saturated clay was placed in a container and weighed. The weight was 6N. The clay in its container was placed in an oven
Problem 4 solved, Effective stresses
Effective stresses: In a deposit of fine sand the water table was at 3m below the ground surface but the sand up to a height of 1m above the water table was saturated by capillary
Problem 3 solved, Water pore pressure
Water pore pressure: For the soil profile given below determine the total and effective stresses at point A. What will be the total, neutral (water pore pressure ) and effective stresses at point if the
Problem 2 solved, Pore pressure in soil
