3 - A triaxial test was carried out on a sand specimen under drained conditions and failure was verified at a deflection stress of 432kN/m2 and the failure plane presented an angle of 330 with the horizontal. Determine: a) The values of the main stresses. [2,0] b) What will be the values of deviation stress and the greatest principal stress at failure, in an identical specimen with a confining stress of 200kN/m2. [1,0]
