Question: Question 2 Three consolidated - undrained triaxial strength tests with pore water pressure measurement have been conducted on soil samples taken from the same soil

Question 2
Three consolidated-undrained triaxial strength tests with pore water pressure measurement have been conducted on soil samples taken from the same soil horizon. The samples were initially 38mm in diameter by 76mm long. There was change in volume during consolidation, but no change in volume during the testing (positive volume changes are compressive). The results are shown in the table below.
Determine an appropriate drained strength envelope for the soil.
