LRJ,
The GWT is at 3m from ground surface(water found at a sand layer with thickness of about 4m). Yes, the test was performed in saturated samples.
The in situ vertical stress for the sample at 15m is 180 kPa, for the sample at 23m is 260 kPa.
I can not see a legitimate reason for...
Dear All,
We are dealing with a flat field containing clay and silt with occasional beds of sand (1-2m thickness). The SPT counts from depth 10m to 30m vary from 30-50. No SPT value is less than 30! GWT is at depth 3m from ground surface. Moisture content is around 20% and LL = 45-55.
I have...
Hi,
We have this massive layer of weathered and altered rock (cohesion around 85 kPa and friction angle of 22 degrees) found on a hill.
Now part of the hill is being excavated, and pieces of this rock layer are being dumped in a downhill. Now If i want to calculate the slope stability of the...
