Shear and normal stresses on aplane that is 37 degrees from


Plot a Mohr’s circle for the following stresseson a square soil element:

σx = 100kPa

σy = 200kPa

τxy = 20 kPa (forceis counterclockwise on the top horizontal surface of theelement)

Determine the following (either from the circle or from equations):

a. Principalstresses

b. Angle of the planeson which the principal stresses act

c. Shear and normal stresses on aplane that is 37 degrees from horizontal
