Shear Stress 5. Please provide proper discussion and illustration. Clear and complete solution please thank you. A clay soil has an undrained shear strength (cohesion, Cu) of 800 psf. How could the strength of this soil be increased?
please help me... If a soil sample tested in a direct shear box of 60 mm by 60 mm and the maximum readings for normal loads of 0.3, 0.5 and 1.0kN were 202, 265 and 511 kN, determine the strength parameters corresponding to effective stress.
