c. An undisturbed soil sample, 110 mm in diameter and 220 mm in height, was tested in a
triaxial machine. The sample sheared under an additional axial load of 3.35 kN with a
vertical deformation of 21 mm. The failure plane was inclined at 50° to the horizontal and
the cell pressure was 300 kN/m².
Draw the Mohr circle diagram representing the above stress conditions, and from it
determine:
Coulomb's equation for the shear strength of the soil, in terms of total stress;
the magnitude and obliquity of the resultant stress on the failure plane.
ii. A further undisturbed sample of the soil was tested in a shear box under the same
drainage conditions as used for the previous test. If the area of the box was 3600 mm² and
the normal load was 500 N, what would you expect the failure stress to have been?
