Group I contains representative load-settlement curves for different modes of bearing capacity failures of sandy soil. Group II enlists the various failure characteristics. Match the load-settlement curves with the corresponding failure characteristics.
| Group I | Group II |
| P. Curve J | 1. No Apparent heaving of soil around the footing |
| Q. Curve K | 2. Rankine's Passive zone develops imperfectly |
| R. Curve L | 3. Well-defined slip surface extends to the ground surface |
