For a partially saturated soil, Δu the increase in pore water pressure, when no drainage is permitted, is expressed as (where A and B are Skempton's pore pressure parameters and Δσ1 and Δσ3 are major and minor principal stress increments)-A-Δu = B[Δσ3 + A(Δσ1 Δσ3)]B-Δu = A[Δσ3 + B(Δσ1 Δσ3)]C-Δu = Δσ3 + A(Δσ1 Δσ3)]D-Δu = Δσ3 + B(Δσ1 Δσ3)]-A-Δu = B[Δσ3 + A(Δσ1 Δσ3)]

Question

For a partially saturated soil, &Delta;u the increase in pore water pressure, when no drainage is permitted, is expressed as (where A and B are Skempton&#39;s pore pressure parameters and &Delta;&sigma;1 and &Delta;&sigma;3 are major and minor principal stress increments)-A-&Delta;u = B[&Delta;&sigma;3 + A(&Delta;&sigma;1 &Delta;&sigma;3)]B-&Delta;u = A[&Delta;&sigma;3 + B(&Delta;&sigma;1 &Delta;&sigma;3)]C-&Delta;u = &Delta;&sigma;3 + A(&Delta;&sigma;1 &Delta;&sigma;3)]D-&Delta;u = &Delta;&sigma;3 + B(&Delta;&sigma;1 &Delta;&sigma;3)]-A-&Delta;u = B[&Delta;&sigma;3 + A(&Delta;&sigma;1 &Delta;&sigma;3)]

APTITUDE CRACK · Accepted Answer

The correct option is  A &Delta;u = B[&Delta;&sigma;3 + A(&Delta;&sigma;1 &Delta;&sigma;3)] No answer description is available.
