Large-Scale Triaxial Compression Testing of Geocell-Reinforced Granular Soils

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 1993
Abstract The paper describes the results of a series of large-scale triaxial tests carried out on 200-mm-high isolated geocell-soil composite specimens and unreinforced soil specimens. Two different aggregate soils were used in the test program.

Comparison between conventional and large scale triaxial compression tests on peat

2015
Large sized triaxial compression tests, diameter 40 cm and height 80 cm, are conducted on peat samples. The aim is twofold. First, heterogeneity of peat causes variation in parameters obtained from conventional laboratory testing. However, heterogeneity in peat is found at any level from microscopic to macroscopic.

A Device for Automatic Logging of Volume Change in Large Scale Triaxial Tests

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 1980
Abstract Large-scale (230-mm-diameter) triaxial compression tests are carried out as part of the research work of the Geotechnics Division of the Building Research Station, United Kingdom. It was considered desirable to monitor the tests by using automatic data logging facilities.

Protocol for Testing Fouled Railway Ballast in Large-Scale Cyclic Triaxial Equipment

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 2012
Abstract A testing protocol was developed to measure accumulation of vertical plastic deformation in fouled railway ballast under cyclic traffic loading. Large-scale cyclic triaxial (LSCT) test equipment was constructed to test fouled ballast under various stress conditions.

Effects of Ballast Degradation on Permanent Deformation Behavior From Large-Scale Triaxial Tests

2014 Joint Rail Conference, 2014
Consisting of large sized aggregate particles with uniform size distribution, ballast is an essential component of the track substructure to facilitate load distribution and drainage. As freight tonnage accumulates with traffic, ballast will get fouled increasingly due to either aggregate breakdown and degradation or contamination by other materials ...

Effects of Ballast Degradation on Shear Strength Behavior from Large-scale Triaxial Tests

2015
Ballast, typically comprising large sized aggregate particles with uniform gradation, is an essential layer in the railroad track substructure. Functions of ballast include facilitating load distribution and drainage, maintaining track geometry and track stability, and providing track resilience and noise absorption.
