Question

Transcribed Image Text:The results below were obtained at failure in a series of consolidated-untrained triaxial
tests, with pore water pressure measurement, on specimens of a fully saturated clay. Determine the
values of the shear strength parameters c' and 'If a specimen of the same soil were
consolidated under an all-round pressure of 300 kN/m² and the principal stress difference applied
with the all-round pressure changed to 400kN/m², what would be the expected value of principal
stress difference at failure"
