The 7 point cumulative weight retained on 4.75 mm and 0.075 mm IS sieves was 1000 gm and 2000 gm respectively. LL and PI of fine grained soll in the mix was found to be 45 % and 10 respectively, The soil class as per USCS and ISCS are OL/ML and OL/ML OL/ML and OW/MI SC and SC OLICL and OVCI No, the answer is incorrect. Score: 0 Accepted Answers: OL/ML and OI/MI 9) Say you have to construct a flexible pavement ata location having high temperature 1 point and minimal rainfall. The following are some lists of test that you have can choose to perform on soil and asphalt mixtures. Which two tests will you prefer to conduct in the laboratory for characterizing the response of the pavement? 1.CBR of subgrade soll 2.4 day soaked CBR of subgrade soil 3.Fatigue test on asphalt mixtures 4Wheel rut test on asphalt mixtures. and 4 1and3 2and4 2and 3 No, the answer is incorrect. Score: 0 Accepted Answers: tand4 10) While doing a sieve size analysis of clay, you found that the hydrometer reading is 1 point 25 after 35 minutes. The effective depth corresponding to this reading is 15 cm. 50 g sample was. taken for conducting the experiment. Calculate the size of particle corresponding to this reading and the percent finer than this size. Assume that the test was done at the standard conditions, 1 Poise Gs = 2.65 Size of the particle should be calculated in mm. n solution = (0.027-0.029) & (80-81) (0.025-0.026) & (79-80) (0.027-0.028) & (72-80) (0.025-0.026) & (80-81) No, the answer is incorrect. Score: 0 Accepted Answers: (0.027-0.028) & (80-81)
