Effect of the optimum and residual moisture content on the strength characteristics of unsaturated sands [PDF]
Soil exists mainly in unsaturated conditions. Therefore, accurate prediction of the soil shear strength for unsaturated conditions also becomes equally important for the geotechnical design of earth structures.

Determination of the Internal Friction Angle of Gravel based on the p-q Graph for Direct Shear Tests [PDF]
Since its simplicity and availability, direct shear test is a current one. This test, compared to the triaxial test, provides different values for the parameters of the gravel due to the specific shape of the test device and the test approach.

On how to accurately testing compressive strength of soils under low confining pressure
It is important to study the stress deformation and stability of foundation by accurately testing the strength index of soils. For the triaxial tests under low confining pressures (less than 100 kPa), the influences of the piston friction and the rubber ...
