The significant depth is assumed up to a level at which the net increase in vertical pressure becomes _______ of initial overburden pressure.
The significant depth is assumed up to a level at which the net increase in vertical pressure becomes _______ of initial overburden pressure. Correct Answer less than 10%
The significant depth is assumed up to a level at which the net increase in vertical pressure becomes less than 10% of initial overburden pressure. Also a pressure bulb bounded by an isobar of 1/5 or 1/10 of the surface loading intensity is assumed as minimum depth of exploration.
