In Design, Permissible stresses is always less than the Max Stresses. Permissible-->allowable. Max--> which resist up to that point or load.

For safe design the max streeses is always lessthan the permisible streeses.

Permissible sld be less than max dude.
Not maximum sld be less den permissible.
So option C is correct.
Not maximum sld be less den permissible.
So option C is correct.

While designing any component our value should be less than the permissible value.

Maximum stress induced in the base should less than the permissible (allowable stress) then only it can withstand otherwise it will fail.

If we put more strength on base as compared to sand, what will happen?

@Raj.
How can you prove that?

Soil is a harden material. So stress is less than base of the dam.
