Question: Q 1 - ) In triaxial compression test a sampled under axial load of 2 2 5 kPa creating a pore pressure of 3 6

Q1-) In triaxial compression test a sampled under axial load of 225 kPa creating a pore pressure of 36
kPa. A second sample from same soil failed under a deviator stress of 150 kPa at an effective shear
resistance of 66.20 kPa when subjected to effective lateral stress of 43 kPa. Determine the total
deviator stress under which the first sample was failed.
