help me with this question, please
Q2:- The data for two soil samples at triaxial Consolidated-Undrained (C-U) test was as follow: Deviator load Height Diameter Cell pressure Pore water pressure sample (gram) (mm) (mm) (03) (pa) (Au) (pa) Si 75 35 50000 40000 4815 S2 72 35 70000 50000 5775 a) Draw the T - o relationship and determine shear strength parameters. b) Estimate the effective shear and normal stresses at failure plane for sample (S1). (tack g=10m/s) (30 points)
soil mechanics
will rate if correct
13. A consolidated, undrained (CU) Triaxial test was performed on a normally consolidated, saturated clay. The minor principal effective stress at the end of consolidation phase, c'3c was 100 kPa. The deviatoric stress, Aod, at failure was 60 kPa. The excess pore pressure at failure, Au was 45 kPa. What is the effective friction angle, "? (a) 21 degrees (6) 26 degrees (e) 33 degrees 14.

2. The results of a Consolidated Undrained (CU) triaxial test on a sand soil are in the figures below. The sample was subjected to a vertical load (do). At failure, the Δσ was 914 psi and the induced pore water pressure at failure (Au) was 683 psi. consolidated to a stress of 12 psi and then Au 6.83 psi σ,-12 psi -σ,-12 psi Sand At Failure Initial (Consolidation) A.

A consolidated undrained (CU) triaxial compression test (TXC) was conducted on a specimen of saturated clay. The specimen was isotropically consolidated to a total cell pressure, σcell of 400 kPa. The backpressure was u0 = 100 kPa. At failure, the total pore water pressure was u = 90 kPa and the deviator stress was (σ1 − σ3)f = 526 kPa. Determine: a. The principal effective stresses, σ1′ and σ3′, at failure b. The friction angle, φ′ (secant method). c. The...
For 1 a) c’=0 & angle = 25.6 degrees
dont answer if u didnt get that. and show ur work please

2. A consolidated undrained triaxial test, in which pore pressure measurements were made, was carried out on a saturated soil with the following results. Given that the initial diameter of the sample was 38 mm in all three cases, determine the values of cohesion and angle of internal friction with respect to (a) total stresses (c and o). (b) effective stresses (c' and o'). The minor and major principal stresses are calculated and presented in the table below (You are...

Two undisturbed clay samples were taken from the middle of the
overconsolidated and normally consolidated clay layers in the soil
profile shown. The water table is at the top of the
overconsolidated clay layer. Consolidation tests were carried out
on the two samples and the results are summarized in the table
below. Assume that the bulk, dry, and saturated unit weights of the
sand are 16 kN/m3, 16 kN/m3 and 19
kN/m3, respectively. The specific gravity of the clay
