A sand sample is subjected to direct shear testing. Two tests areperformed. For test 1, The sample shears at a stress of 2500 psf whenthe normal stress is 4000 psf.Test 2, The sample shears at a stress of 3500 psf when the normalstress is 6000 psf. Determine the following:a) Angle of Internal frictionb) Value of cohesionc) Compute the shear stress at a depth of 12 ft. if the unit weight ofthe soil is 150 pcf
Question A sample of dry sand was tested in direct shear test apparatus under a normal load of 72 kg. The shear load required to fail the sample was found to be 36 kg. The angle of internal friction () will be:
a. A shear box test carried out on a soil sample gave the following results ✓ Vertical load [kg] 36.8 73.6 110.4 147.2 Gauge reading for proving 16 26 35 44 (shearing) ring [μm] If the shear box is 60 mm square and the proving ring constant/factor is 20 N/μm, determine the apparent cohesion and angle of internal friction for this soil. HINT: Determine normal stress from vertical load readings and shear stress from proving ring readings
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. i. 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?
