Question
Which of the following statement is incorrect?
(a) The maximum stable slope in a coarse-grained soil (φ’= x o), in the absence of
seepage, is x o
(b) Taylor’s method can be used to assess long term slope stability
(c) Slopes with clay should be assessed using both short-term and long-term loading
conditions
(d) The maximum stable slope in a coarse-grained soil (φ’= x o), in the presence of
seepage, is half of x o
x = 25

- Separate triaxial compression tests are performed on identical soil samples. The soil is saturated mixed soil. At failure, the respective minor and major principal stresses values are 10 kPa and 30 kPa for sample one, and 40 kPa and 70 KPa for sample two. From these data, determine the value for ∅ and the cohesion intercept C on the Mohr’s circle shear strength coordinate.
