Question:
A cone penetration test was carried out in normally consolidated sand, for which the results are summarized below:
Depth (m) ........................ Cone resistance, qc (MN/m2)
2.0 ....................................................... 3.12
3.5 ....................................................... 4.25
5.0 ....................................................... 5.14
6.5 ....................................................... 9.23
8.0 ....................................................... 12.2
The average unit weight of the sand is 16.5 kN/m3. Determine the friction angle at each depth using Eq. (3.52).
Eq. (3.52)

Proficiency As A Teacher
I, am an engineering graduate having background of science education and higher education/experience in context to industry/academic.
My suitability/considerations for doubt solver of science, engineering and management subjects are as follows:
? My engineering knowledge and experience supports the better understanding of the science/mathematics based subjects as the most of civil engineering subjects like structural mechanics, fluid mechanics, geotechnical engineering, water resources engineering, construction technology are based on physics/math application principles
? My industry/teaching mixed experience provides the problem-solving approach in better way through understanding and qualitative expressions in clear step form
? My management degree, which is responsible for enhancement of my analytical ability and communication style/pattern, helps in providing the effective and efficient way of the grasping/solving the doubts
