Problem-4 A series of direct shear tests was conducted on a soil, each test was carried out till the sample failed. The following results were obtained. Sample No. Normal Force (N) 1 2 3 4 120 220 320 420 Size of the specimen = 50mm x 50mm Height of the specimen = 25mm Determine the cohesion and angle of internal friction. Check and Prove the results with Mohr-Coulomb Failure Criterion. Shear Force (N) 114 179 239 286
