The Sand Compaction Pile (SCP) method is considered to be a displacement type pile method, in which a considerable amount of "set-up" of the undrained shear strength of the surrounding clay is anticipated. A simplified procedure for analyzing the set-up problem is presented in two stages. ...
Undrained shear strength of clay by torsional shear test : Tatsuoka, F; Hara, K Proc Eighth Asian Regional Conference on Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering, Kyoto, 20–24 July 1987V1, P109–112. Publ Japan: Japanese Society for Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering, 1987 Available ...
The undrained shear strength (Su) of clay is generally obtained from the laboratory test on undisturbed soil sample or direct measure using the field vane shear test. As cone penetration test (CPT) has become a popular method for exploring the subsoilC Chen...
Clay soilLimit pressurePhysical propertiesA pressuremeter test (PMT) is one of the in situ tests, which is used to evaluate deformation and strength parameters of soils for various projects, including subway projects. The limit pressure (PL) and undrained shear strength (Su) are the key ...
This study focuses on the effects of a heating-cooling cycle on the undrained shear strength of normally consolidated clay specimens. A clear increase in undrained shear strength was observed for specimens sheared after drained heating to an elevated temperature, while a further increase in undrained...
Undrained shear strength of K0 consolidated soft clays WANG Li-zhong YE Sheng-hua SHEN Kai-lun HU Ya-yuan (College of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou 310027, China) Abstract: Based on the researches of the other scholars and the critical state soil mechanics, ...
The effect of increase in shear strength as well as degree of saturation was observed higher in the soil having more expansive clay minerals i.e. having higher values of liquid limit. A good correlation was obtained between the increase in confining stress and the increase in the degree of ...
Undrained shear strength of clay from laboratory testing. One of the objectives of the 2003 investigation was to assess the strength gain of the material below the constructed embankments. Therefore, some of the undrained shear strength testing undertaken in 2003 was on material that had been ...
Unconsolidated-undrained (UU) triaxial compression tests were performed on low-plasticity clay specimens compacted to the same void ratio but different initial degrees of saturation to evaluate the impact of axial strain rates ranging from 0.1 to 150%/min on the undrained shear strength. Although an...
The undrained shear strength of K0-consolidated clay is provided with the property of stress-induced anisotropy. K0固结粘土的不排水剪强度具有应力诱发各向异性的性质,本文将在各向异性土的本构关系基础上得到的不排水剪强度应用到滑移线场理论中,出得了K0固结粘土地基的极限承载力理论解。6...
