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...
2.If an additional CU triaxial test with pore pressure
measurement is to be performed using a ?3 of 250 kPa on a specimen
identical to those in last Problem , estimate the deviator stress

would potentially be orientation of the failure plane in the
specimen?

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...
