Question
The total stress paths corresponding to different
laoding conditions, for a soil specimen under the
isotropically consolidated stress state (O), are
shown below
q = 0, - 03
S
O3
o, +203
p =
3
Q
Stress Path Loading Condition
1- Compression loading
(o, - increa sing; o, - constant)
Il- Compression unloading
(6, - constant; o3 – decreasing)
III-Extension unloading
OP
OQ
OR
(0, - decreasing; o3 – constant)
IV - Extension loading
OS
(o, - constant; o, – increasing)
The correct match between the stress paths and
the listed loading conditions. is
(a) OP – IV, OQ – III, OR – 1, OS – I
-
(b) OP – 1, OQ - III, OR – II, OS – IV
(c) OP – I, OQ – II, OR – IV, OS – III
(d) OP – III, OQ – II, OR – I, OS – IV
