puit (u) and not T 3lear stress. 7-13 Two similar samples of a very dense saturated cohesionless soil are to be shear tested under drained and undrained conditions. How should the shearing resistance from these two tests compare and why? What if the soil was initially very loose? 7- 14 Shear strength tests conducted on samples of a highly overconsolidated clay resulted in lower strengths for CD tests than for CU tests. Ilustrate this behavior by plotting typical Mohr's circles at failure and briefly explain why.
