Sample Questions

Question 1
In planning a subsurface investigation for shallow foundations on soft coastal alluvium, which primary objective should guide borehole spacing and depth?
Characterise strength, compressibility and groundwater to support bearing and settlement design
Obtain only SPT N-values without sampling
Prove rockhead only, ignoring soft soils
Minimise drilling cost regardless of soil variability
Question 2
For a hill-site cut slope in residual soil, which parameter set is most critical for limit-equilibrium stability analysis?
Shear strength parameters and design groundwater levels
Organic content alone
Colour of the residual soil
Only Atterberg limits without strength data
Question 3
When compacting engineered fill for a building platform, which construction control practice is expected?
Place and compact in controlled loose lifts with density testing
Compact only the top surface after full thickness placement
Omit testing if the borrow is visually clean
Place fill by end-tipping from height without layering
Question 4
An embankment is proposed on soft clay. Which settlement components should the geotechnical assessment normally address?
Immediate, primary consolidation and secondary compression as applicable
Elastic shortening of piles only
Thermal expansion of the fill only
Immediate settlement only
Question 5
Prefabricated vertical drains (PVD) with surcharge are commonly selected for soft clay sites primarily to:
Shorten the drainage path and accelerate primary consolidation under surcharge
Eliminate the need for any settlement monitoring
Replace the requirement for slope stability checks
Increase the undrained strength instantly without consolidation
