DO QUESTION B, IDK HOW TO DO B
a) Three samples of a soil have been tested under consolidated undrained conditions in a triaxial cell using a constant back pressure of 100 kPa at the consolidation stage under isotropic stress conditions. Details of the test are found in the table below.
Estimate the effective shear strength parameters.
