Question
I need right answer with explanation. Thank you Note: Explanation mandatory
Regarding fill preloading and vacuum preloading, select the statements below that are true:
Vacuum preloading can apply pressure in one stage while fill preloading may require staged
construction if the soil is too weak
The maximum pressure of vacuum preloading is limited by the atmospheric pressure while the
maximum pressure of fill preloading is limited by the strength of the soil
the maximum pressure of fill preloading can be increased during the staged construction
the maximum pressure of vacuum preloading can be increased during the staged construction
During fill preloading, soil may fail if the rate of loading is not well controlled
