Problem 3: Put the Mohr-Coulomb line you calcuated in problem 2 onto a Mohr plot along with a circkle
derived from the values at left. Does this state of stress lie entirely in the safe (no failure) space defined by
the M-C result?
Note: You can use Excel for this problem - if you want.
When plotting the Mohr Circle in Excel, be sure that the circle is aligned properly wrt normal stress axis (i.e. staddling the horizontal axis).
Also, check that plot axes are equidimensional, as discussed in class. (Also see tab in this spreadsheet titled "helper on Excel plots."
