APPLICABILITY OF SHANSEP METHOD IN EVALUATION OF PRECONSOLIDATION PRESSURE

open access: yese-GFOS, 2020
This article presents an experimental study on 81 specimens made from three different mixtures of clay and sand. To ensure uniform initial parameters, all specimens were prepared with an initial water content of 30%.

An open-source application software to determine the preconsolidation pressure of soils in incremental loading oedometer testing: pySigmaP

open access: yesSoftwareX, 2022
This paper presents pySigmaP, an open-source application software developed in Python 3 under the object-oriented paradigm to determine the preconsolidation pressure, σp′, of soils in incremental loading oedometer testing.

Determination of preconsolidation pressure with artificial neural network

open access: yesCivil Engineering and Environmental Systems, 2005
The correct determination of preconsolidation pressure is significantly important for settlement analysis in clay deposits. Many graphical methods have been developed by researchers for determining of preconsolidation pressure up to date. Some of these methods are Casagrande, Tavenas, Butterfield, Schmertmann and Janbu. Over the last few years, the use

Improved Determination of Preconsolidation Pressure of a Sensitive Clay

open access: yes, 1960
Poor agreement between calculated and measured consolidation settlement in the Leda (Laurentian) clay of eastern Canada suggested that either the classical consolidation theory might not apply to this soil or that present testing techniques were not yielding the correct consolidation characteristics of the soil.

Influence of Load Duration and Load Ratio on Preconsolidation Pressure

open access: yesJournal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 2008
Preconsolidation pressure is a very important parameter, which describes the stress history and affects the behavior of the cohesive soil in geotechnical engineering.

LOW-COST ELECTRO-MECHANICAL PRESS FOR DETERMINING PRE-CONSOLIDATION PRESSURE [PDF]

open access: yesEngenharia Agrícola, 2022
The pre-consolidation pressure is a soil parameter indicating the maximum load that can be supported without irreversible deformation. However, the commercially available equipment for such determination is very expensive, limiting studies on this ...

Experimental Investigation into Compressive Behaviour and Preconsolidation Pressure of Structured Loess at Different Moisture Contents

open access: yesGeofluids, 2021
This paper investigates the influence of the structured property of loess on its compressive behaviour and proposes a new method for determining the preconsolidation pressure of structured loess soil.

Insight on bulk shear strength parameters of clay using discrete element approach incorporating physics-based interparticle force model

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 2023
This paper aims to provide insight on factors affecting the bulk shear strength parameters of clay, i.e., the cohesion and internal friction as well as the effects of memory of preconsolidation pressure.

Preconsolidation pressure from piezocone tests in marine clays [PDF]

open access: yesGéotechnique, 1987
Piezocone penetration tests were carried out at five sites in marine clay with overconsolidation ratios ranging from 1·3 to 4·8 A simple model for the behaviour of these clays indicates that the effective vertical yield stress mobilized along the cone axis during penetration is equal to the difference between the actual induced total vertical stress ...
