The equation of the effective stress failure envelope for a slightly over-consolidated clay is T₁ = c'+otano'. For an axial compression CD triaxial test performed on a sample of this soil at the cell pressure of 96 kPa, the major principal stress at failure was 306 kPa. If c′=12 kPa, determine and show the orientation of the failure plane using the Pole Method. Note: give a graphical solution showing all the details.
