Separate triaxial compression tests are wwwmmmmmmmmmm performed on identical soil samples. The soil is a saturated mixed soil. At failure, the respective minor and major principal stresses values are 20 kPa and 46 kPa for sample one and 40 kPa and 80 KPa for sample two. From these. data, determine the value for and the cohesion intercept C on the Mohr's circle shear strength coordinate.
