Q: A consolidated-drained tri-axial test was conducted on a normally consolidated clay. The results are as following: confining stress, G3 = 150 kN/m² and deviator stress, (Aod)t = 150 kN/m². i) Determine angle of friction, q; ii) Determine angle 0 that the failure plane makes with the major principal plane; iii) Find the normal stress and the shear stress ty on the failure plane; and iv) Determine the effective normal stress on the plane of maximum shear stress. Express your results in two decimal places.
Prob- The various approximations approaches described in this section can be used to compare K_a for both a normally consolidated (nc) clay and a clay with a known value of OCR = 5.0.
Triaxial compression test (CU) is conducted on a normally consolidated clay at a confining pressure of 100 kPa. The deviator stress at failure is 80 kPa, and the pore-water pressure measured at failure is 50 kPa. Determine the angle of internal friction.

Two foundations are located next to each other as follows. Determine the stress increase on a horizontal plane (i.e. - the increase in vertical stress) beneath Point A at a depth of 3 m below the ground surface. The foundations are bearing on the ground surface. 3 m- +2.5 m -6 m 5 m A O= 90 kPa = 120 kPa 6 m
