Constrained modulus of fine-grained soils from in situ-based correlations and comparison with laboratory tests [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesThe Constrained Modulus of soil is an important parameter to quantify compressibility of soils and calculate consolidation settlements, especially for clays. It is often expressed in terms of 1D constrained modulus, M or its inverse coefficient of volume
