Plot the two test results on a shear stress-normal stress

Reference no: EM13316935

Two triaxial tests were performed on two prepared samples of the same limestone. At a confining pressure of 2000 psi, the first sample failed at 9000 psi. Then at a confining pressure of 5000 psi, the other sample failed at 21,000 psi. Plot the two test results on a shear stress-normal stress diagram and draw in Mohr envelope.
