Sandstone pore of 20 mm in diameter and 100 mm long with porosity of 15% is prepared for
core flood experiment. The sandstone pore is fully (100%) saturated with water by injecting
water with viscosity of 1cp at volumetric flow rate of 20 cubic mm/sec. A pressure drop of 1
atm was recorded across the pore during the injection process.
i. What is the absolute permeability of the sandstone pore sample in mD?
ii. What is the pore volume of sandstone sample?
iii. The sandstone pore sample is flooded by oil with viscosity of 2 cp until
water saturation reaching to 25%. Calculate the oil volume inside the pore
at the end of flood

Combine the following aggregates in the right proportions to produce a blend with the given target gradation.

A capped pile group consisting a rectangular grid of 7 by 3 spanning a total length of, 7.1 m in length. Piles are of size 400 mm diameter and spaced at 1.8 m interval. The soil profile at the site consists of 2.5 m of sand followed by clay soil below. Drive Method construction method would be used. Field and laboratory data on the soil profile indicates top layer shear strength of N = 25. Average and strength for bottom layer are Cu = 265 kPa and Cu = 290 kPa.

A new waste treatment plant has been planned to replace an existing small aging plant for your home town. Discuss the MOEs for (i)the overall system, (ii)each phase of the overall system development,and (iii)the operations phase of any of the plant’s processes.

11. Bonus (10%) Explain your understanding of effective Stress concepts. Why effective stress is considered the most important concept in geotechnical engineering including but not limited to slope engineering, design of earth structures and foundation engineering, etc.?  How did you make the best understanding and application of effective stress to soil engineering? (Note: You have calculated them in your homework jobs assignment and have been applying them in settlement analysis as in the tests).

Q6: A cantilever beam having span ‘L’ m was subjected to a uniformly distributed load of
magnitude 8 kN/m for a distance of ‘0.6 L’ from the free end and two concentrated loads one of
magnitude 15 kN at a distance ‘0.25 L’ m from the free end while the other of magnitude ‘22’ kN at
a distance ‘0.6 L’ m from the free end respectively. It was observed that the maximum bending
moment acting on the beam is equal to (-369 kNm). Suggest a suitable span for the beam based on
the loading condition. How it will change the reaction at the fixed support? What happens to the
shear force and bending moment values at the fixed support, free end and at the center of the
beam? By plotting bending moment and shear force diagram for the beam briefly conclude the
relationship between the values for shear force and bending moment
