EFFECTS OF SAMPLING AND DISTURBANCE ON THE STRENGTH OF SOFT CLAYS,

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD0837276 | Need Help?

Abstract:

The laboratory procedure most commonly used for strength determination is the triaxial compression test. The relationship between data obtained with this test procedure and the in-situ strength of a soil under comparable deformation conditions i.e., axially symmetric strain and same orientation of principal stresses will be the subject of this report.
