3) The results below were obtained at failure in a series of consolidated-undrained triaxial tests, with pore water pressure measurement, on specimens of a fully saturated clay. Determine the values of the shear strength parameters c' and q'. If a specimen of the same soil were consolidated under an all-round pressure of 240 kN/m² and the principal stress difference applied with the all-round pressure changed to 340 kN/m², what would be the expected value of principal stress difference at failure? Table 1: Results of CUT tests. 300 450 205 310 170 250 σ3, kPa 01-03, kPa u, kPa 150 105 85 600 420 330
