a. A vane shear test was conducted in a saturated clay. The height and diameter of the rectangular vane were 4 in. and 2 in., respectively. During the test, the maximum torque applied was 230 lb-in. Determine the undrained shear strength of the clay. b. The clay soil described in part (a) has a liquid limit of 58 and a plastic limit of 29. What would be the corrected undrained shear strength of the clay for design purposes? Use Bjerrum’s relationship for λ
