Be ready to get scared at 8:35

[@chalavadisaisrujankumar6703]

But why?

[@NicholleWillisLoves]

At that time, he probably overlapped something he accidentally said wrong with another recording and the inserted recording was a lot louder than his voice throughout the rest of the video.

Amazing

[@sarperdemirdogen2261]

Excellent!

[@alideep9656]

Thank you

[@alideep9656]

Thabk you again

[@adityakushwah4980]

Very well explained..

[@user-gh1qp7sm9f]

Thanks

[@toniadrianto8424]

Thank u

Sir, on the vertical displacement v/s horizontal curve on y- axis is it shear displacement?

[@introductiontogeotechnical4976]

I believe it's more accurate to simply call it horizontal displacement. It is NOT the shear strain, nor can it be used to compute the shear strain. The actual stress-strain conditions within the test are very complicated and not well defined. It is not possible to develop a stress-strain curve for the soil from this test.

thanks a lot

How to find the shear strain of sample in direct shear test?

[@abdesakib4424]

Ganidu Karunanayaka you can't

[@luisamariareyes6795]

Hey! What book are you talking about?

HOW TO Find principal stressess

[@mushtaqdass7421]

nice sir

[@kzero9714]

is there any use of the volume change other than to visualizif the soil is dilate/enlarge or contract ?

[@kzero9714]

perhaps in relation to compression index and swelling index ?

[@sethtalkington5447]

What does the residual strength represent?

[@chalavadisaisrujankumar6703]

It is the strength that is left in the material (either soil or rock) after it's failure. It's because of the holding of the particles together by inherent friction of the material.

Excellent!
