  1. 1What does an increase in void ratio do?
    1. ADecrease permeability and increase porosity
    2. BDecrease permeability and decrease porosity
    3. CIncrease permeability and increase porosity
    4. DIncrease permeability and decrease porosity
  2. 2The 6 controls of weathering are: [blank_start]Climate[blank_end], [blank_start]Geology[blank_end] ([blank_start]structure[blank_end] & [blank_start]type[blank_end]) , [blank_start]Topography, Erosion, Time[blank_end]
    1. AClimate
    2. BGeology

    5. ETopography, Erosion, Time
  3. 3How are Core Stones created?
    1. AGW variation
    2. BGeologic variation
    3. CClimate
  4. 4What factors decrease as weathering increases on a rock mass?
    1. AUniaxial Compression
    2. BDensity
    3. CDeformation
    4. DStrength
  5. 5Are soils the result of weathering on a rockmass?
    1. ATrue
    2. BFalse
  6. 6What 2 things are soils made of?
    1. AVoids
    2. BParticles
    3. CMoisture content
    4. DStress
  7. 7Soil with increasing [blank_start]water content[blank_end] cannot have an increase in [blank_start]density[blank_end] with compaction
    1. Awater content
    2. Bdensity
  8. 8An increase in moisture content sees a decrease in shear strength
    1. ATrue
    2. BFalse
  9. 9If a soil had a low bulk density what does it mean?
    1. AHigh void ratio/ Young/ Long settlement time
    2. BLow void ratio/Young/ Short settlement
  10. 10If a soil has a high void ratio it is therefore:
    1. ACompact
    2. BLoose
