A soil sample is subjected initially to an equal all-round stress of 100 kPa. Draw stress paths for the loading conditions, when
(a)h is held constant and v increases to 200 kPa,
(b)h and v are both increased to 200 kPa,
(c)v is held constant and h is increased to 200 kPa,
(d)v is held constant while h is decreased to 25 Kpa
(e)v is increased by 50 kPa while h decreases by 50 kPa
