When the degree of saturation is zero, the soil mass under consideration represents

Hydrometer readings are corrected for:

Inorganic soils with low compressibility are represented by

The ultimate consolidation settlement of a structure resting on a soil

The major principal stress in an element of cohesion-less soil within the backfill of a retaining wall is

In hydrometer analysis for a soil mass

In the triaxial compression test, the application of additional axial stress (i.e. deviator stress) on the soil specimen produces shear stress on

According to IS classification, the range of silt size particles is

If the voids of a soil mass are full of air only, the soil is termed as

Highway Research Board (HRB) classification of soils is based on
