Auger Bit for Frozen Fine-Grained Soil [PDF]
Abstract : Auger bits 6.5 in. (165 mm) and 9.5 in. (241 mm) in diameter were modified to satisfy military and general engineering requirements for producing holes in frozen soil. A commercial bit was selected since it appeared to need only minor modification.

A NEW APPROACH FOR PARTICLE SIZE CHARACTERIZATION OF SOIL BASED ON DYNAMIC IMAGE ANALYSIS (DIA)
Particle size distribution (PSD) affects soil behaviour and plays a main role in geotechnical engineering. In site investigations of large engineering structures, in earthquakes and liquefaction research and before filter material selection, it is ...

Measurement of Degree of Compaction of Fine-Grained Soil Subgrade Using Light Dynamic Penetrometer
To determine the degree of compaction of subgrades filled with fine-grained soil, the compaction test and light dynamic penetrometer (LDP) test were carried out for low liquid-limit clay samples with different water contents in laboratory.

Geotechnical characteristics correlations for fine-grained soils
AbstractCompressibility and shear strength are the principal geotechnical engineering properties of soils, which control the stability of a soil mass under structural loads. Therefore, it is always required to be measured before the design of the foundation of any structure.

Geotechnical characteristics of fine-grained soil with wood ash
The study investigates the effect of wood ash (WA) on the geotechnical behavior of low-plasticity clay (CL) soil with the aim of improving soil properties while minimizing environmental impact. Various WA ratios (0 %, 8 %, 16 %, 24 %, and 32 % by the dry

Modelling soil moisture – soil strength relationship of fine-grained upland forest soils
The strength of soil is known to be dependent on water content but the relationship is strongly affected by the type of soil. Accurate moisture content – soil strength models will provide forest managers with the improved ability to reduce soil ...
