Samples from sandstone were collected from two different depths (80m and 200m) and triaxial shearing tests were performed to estimate the shear strength parameters. From each depth, two different specimens were tests at distinct isotropic confining pressures and from the experiments the deviatoric stress at failure was assessed. The results from these experiments are summarized in Table 1.1.

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.
1.A dry sand is known to have an angle of internal friction of 29. A triaxial test is planned, where the confining pressure will be 41 kPa. What is the maximum axial stress, in kPa, (major principal stress) that can be applied? Calculate the value to 1 decimal place. Do not provide units in your answer. 2.A clay soil is subjected to a triaxial test under unconsolidated-undrained conditions. At failure, the major and minor principal stresses are 8401 psf and 4875 psf, respectively. What is the shear strength of this soil if the confining pressure is doubled? Provide your answer in psf with no decimals.
