engineering recuitment GATE CE 2023-24 Test Series Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Effective and Neutral Stress
When sand above the water table gets partially saturated due to capillary phenomena. The maximum effective stress just below the top of the capillary zone is _________kN/m2 (Correct to nearest integer).
Take Gs = 2.75, e = 0.67, Sr = 50%, D10 = 0.02 mm, and Cu < 5. Assume Hazen equation is valid.
