2024 CE Past Board Exam Problems in Hydraulics
and Geotechnical Engineering
Decrease in the vertical pressure
If the groundwater table will be at the ground level;
Hydraulic Gradient
a line joining the points of highest elevation of water in a series of vertical open
pipes rising from a pipeline in which water flows under pressure.
Water Hammer
a pressure surge or wave caused when a fluid in motion is forced to stop or
change direction suddenly
Effect of load to the foundations
One of the following foundation conditions does not affect foundation
settlement.
Continuous
When at any instant, the number of particles passing every section of the stream
are always equal, the flow is said to be
40
The fraction of soils passing which sieve number is used for Atterberg Limits
tests of soils?
High shear strength
Not characteristic of cohesionless soils
Degree of Saturation
the ratio of the volume of water to the volume of voids in a soil mass
Void Ratio
Ratio between volume of voids to volume of solids
Porosity
