APPLICABILITY OF SHANSEP METHOD IN EVALUATION OF PRECONSOLIDATION PRESSURE
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%.

Determination of preconsolidation pressure with artificial neural network
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
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
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]
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 ...

Preconsolidation pressure from piezocone tests in marine clays [PDF]
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 ...
