Consider the following statements:
1. Standard penetration test is commonly used for cohesionless soils.
2. Standard penetration test results in respect of a cohesionless soil are correlated to its density index and friction angle.
3. Use of H-value not corrected for overburden pressure leads to highly
conservative design of footings at shallow depths.
Which of these statements are correct?
(a) 1, 2 & 3 (b) 1 & 2 only (c) 2 & 3 only (d) 1 & 3 only
