Consider the following statements:
For pure clay, the shear strength parameters will be
1. Cohesion c = 0; and angle of internal friction will be maximum.
2. Cohesion c is maximum; and angle of internal friction is also maximum.
3. Angle of internal friction is zero, with some value of cohesion c.
Which of these statements is/are correct?
(a) 1, 2 & 3 (b) 1 only (c) 3 only (d) 2 only
