Below details are given for a direct shear test on a dry
sand:
Sample dimensions: 75mm x 75mm x 30mm (height),
normal stress: 200 kN/m2,
shear stress at failure: 175kN/m2.
Determine the friction angle and what shear force is required to
cause failure for a normal stress of 150 kN/m2.
(Graph should be plotted on a standard graph paper)
