A Tri-axial shear test was performed on a well-drained sand sample. The normal stress on the failure plane and the shearing stress on the failure plane were determined to be 50 kPa and 30 kPa, respectively.<br />a. Determine the angle of internal friction of the sand<br />b. Determine the angle, in degrees, of the failure plane with respect to the horizontal plane<br />c. Determine the axial stress applied to the specimen<br />-<br />HPGE CE Board Problem 31 (Hydraulics and Geotechnical Engineering) - CE Nov 2023<br />-<br />paki pindot po sa "LIKE" button mga Engr.<br />and click SUBSCRIBE na rin po if hindi pa po kayo naka "SUBSCRIBE"<br /><br />Maraming salamat po sa inyo mga Engineers and Future Engineers.<br />mabuhay po kayong lahat.<br />-<br />FB Page - https://www.facebook.com/MrComputerCiviLEngineer<br />Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@SolUsmanJr<br />-------------<br />CREDIT:<br />-------------<br />Soundtrack:<br />Ace Attorney Dual Destinies - Apollo Justice (I'm fine)<br />Ace Attorney Spirit of Justice (Credit Theme)<br /><br />Avatar:<br />SuperME Cartoon Avatar Maker (mobile app)<br /><br />Reference:<br />"Licensure Exams for Civil Engineering" by BESAVILLA<br />"CE Reference for Licensure Examination" by GILLESANIA<br />-<br />#civilengineeringlicensureexam<br />#solusmanjr <br />#ceboardexam
