Unsaturated shear strength of a silty sand

Engineering Geology, 2013
Abstract Series of single stage, consolidated drained direct shear tests under different net normal stresses and matric suctions were carried out to evaluate the unsaturated shear strength behavior of a silty sand. A back pressure shear box was used to measure and control pore-air and pore-water pressures.

Liquefaction Potential Assessment Of Silty And Silty-Sand Deposits: A Case Study

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
The paper shows a case study concerning the liquefaction potential assessment of deposits which mainly consist of non plastic silts and sands (FC>35 ...

Liquefaction potential of reinforced silty sands

2015
In this study a series of cyclic triaxial tests were performed to examine the undrained dynamic resistance of silty sand reinforced with various arrangements of geotextile layers. The silt content of samples varies in percentage from 0, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50%.

Suffusion compressibility of cemented silty sands

Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering, 1991
The All-Union Scientific Research Institute of Foundations and Underground Structures has investigated the mechanical properties of cemented silty sands. The soils for the tests were taken from the sites at the Tengizsk oil-gas deposit.

Evaluation of silty sand as a material for sand compaction piles and applications

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Ground Improvement, 1999
Two types of sand compaction pile (SCP) model tests have been carried out to investigate the engineering properties of locally available and low-quality sand in Thailand as well as its suitability for SCP construction materials. The SCP model tests were performed using drop hammer compaction in one case and vibrator compaction in another.

Undrained Fragility of Clean Sands, Silty Sands, and Sandy Silts

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2002
In this paper, intergranular (\Ie\dc\N) and interfine (\Ie\df\N) void ratios and confining stress are used as indices to characterize the stress-strain response of gap-graded granular mixes. It was found that at the same global void ratio (\ie) and confining stress, the collapse potential (fragility) of silty sand increases with an increase in fines ...

A New Traveling Sand Pluviator to Reconstitute Specimens of Well-Graded Silty Sands

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 1993
Abstract A new traveling sand pluviator to reconstitute small specimens for laboratory tests was developed in joint research between the Research Center of the Italian National Electricity Board (ENEL CRIS) of Milano and the Department of Structural Engineering of the Politecnico di Torino.

Determination of the Cyclic Properties of Silty Sands

2018
Liquefaction may be triggered by cyclic loading on saturated silty sands, which is responsible of severe geotechnical problems. Development of excess pore water pressure in soil results in a liquid-like behavior and may be the reason of unavoidable superstructural damage.
