b) When subjected to a triaxial compression test at a confining pressure of 260kNm−2, a soil sample failed at 950kNm−2. If the angle of shearing resistance at failure for this sample was 22.5∘, determine the shear and normal stresses that acted on, and perpendicular to, the failure plane, respectively c) During a site investigation, a soil sample with was collected from the UNZA East Park Mall construction site. The sample had a length to diameter ration of 3:1 and subjected to a vertical load, in the lab, of 35 kN. At failure, the sample experienced 14 mm and 2 mm changes in length and diameter, respectively. Calculate: i) The sample's longitudinal and diametric strains ii) The modulus of elasticity (also called Young's modulus) for the sample iii) Poisson's ratio (Diameter of an NX-core sample is 5.4 cm )
