The soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is the main constitutive relation to reveal the properties of unsaturated soils. However, few researches on soil-water characteristics of unsaturated soils in high-temperature environment, especially over 100˚C,

Vibrations on a Model Pile in Soft Clay
ABSTRACT The elastic buckling characteristics of a slender model pile embedded in soft clay have been investigated for both static and vibratory loading conditions. The load-rotation behaviour was studied for a static eccentric load. Comparative tests were carried out with vertical vibrations imposed directly on the pile in order to simulate the ...

Classification of soft clay in Jiangsu Province based on piezocone penetration tests
The classification results of soft soils in Jiangsu Province are derived through the CPTU data. The soil classification methods based on the CPTU data are reiviewed, then the SBT (soil behavior type) method and the Ic (soil index) method are chosen to ...

Pore pressures and strains after repeated loading of saturated clay [PDF]
Repeated and sustained loading tests on undrained samples of normally consolidated lacustrine clay are used to prove the existence of a relationship between pore water pressures and axial strains.The behavior of the clay is studied by investigating the ...

Constructing Highway Pavements over Soft Clay Soil Improved by Quicklime [PDF]
The national network of highways has been monotonically increased over the last few years. The increasing need for infrastructure development has led engineers to find safe techniques to construct the infrastructure on soft soils.

Delayed Failure in Soft Clay Foundations
ABSTRACT Even in normally consolidated or lightly overconsolidated clay foundations failures can occur some days/ weeks after the load application is completed. Such an event can sometimes be attributed to creep-like failure. In this paper, the time dependent failure of a homogeneous normally consolidated soft clay foundation has been investigated ...
