Following Civil Engineering Multiple choice objective type questions and answers will help you in BSNL JTO, GATE 2024 and IES 2024 examinations :

11.The most suitable method for drainage of fine grained cohesive soils is

well ppint system

vacuum method

deep well system

electro-osmosis method

12.Time factor for a clay layer is

a dimensional parameter

directly proportional to permeability of soil

inversely proportional to drainage path

independent of thickness of clay layer

13.Effective stress on soil

increases voids ratio and decreases permeability

increases both voids ratio and per-meability

decreases both voids ratio and per-meability

decreases voids ratio and increases permeability

14.The ultimate consolidation settlement of a structure resting on a soil

decreases with the increase in the initial voids ratio

decreases with the decrease in the plastic limit

increases with the increase in the initial voids ratio

increases with the decrease in the porosity of the soil

15.Coefficient of compressibility is

constant for any type of soil

different for different types of soils and also different for a soil under different states of consolidation

different for different types of soils but same for a soil under different states of consolidation

independent of type of soil but depends on the stress history of soil
