Answer: b) Method of superposition
Explanation:
In 1943, the method which is suggested by Biot was totally based on the method of superposition & is was proposed by Terzaghi.
Statement of Terzaghi’s Principle is that whenever the stress is supposed to be applied to any porous type of material, then it is opposed by the fluid pressure filling the pores in that material.
