What is Understanding Subsurface Stresses in Soil about?

1) Stresses in soil are caused by the weight of overlying soil and any additional loads from structures. 2) The magnitude of subsurface stress is affected by the groundwater table if it extends above the point in question. 3) Effective stress, the stress carried by the soil skeleton, is equal to total stress minus pore water pressure.
