Structural Analysis & Soil Mechanics : Nuclear Quiz 4

Which one of the following test on a saturated clay soil gives the unique effective stress Mohr circle?

Given that the effective angle of internal friction of the soil is 10⁰, the angle between the failure plane and the major principle plane will be:

A soil has an angle of shearing of 30° and cohesion of 35 kN/m². If the specimen of this soil is subjected to a tri-axial compression test, then the value of lateral pressure in the cell for failure to occur at total stress of 300 kN/m² will be

Cohesion is 15 KN/m², the unit weight of soil is 20 KN/m³, the factor of safety is 1.5 and stability number is 0.05; the safe maximum height of the slope is

A simply supported beam is subjected to clockwise moments at both ends A & B. If the ratio of rotation at the two ends A & B is 4, then the ratio of applied moments at A & B will be

Force required to produce a unit displacement (translation only) at either one-third point of a fixed beam of span ℓ and uniform EI is?

The final end moments M_AB, M_BA and M_CD are 7.5, 5 and 10 kN-m respectively. The magnitude of end moment at D, (M_DC) is?
