Q 1. A granular soil has sat -20kn/m3 , = 36o A slope is to be constructed with this material It factor of
safety needed is 1.3 against failure, determine safe slope angle if (a)Flow takes parallel to slope at
surface
(b)Water table exist at 1.5m below ground surface, compute and if slip surface exist at
4m depth.
(c)Dry state.
