On the undrained shear strength of gassy clays

Computers and Geotechnics, 2005
Abstract The presence of methane gas will affect a soil’s strength, which will alter its resistance to submarine sliding and in turn impact offshore developments. This paper describes a constitutive model for determining the undrained shear strength of fine-grained gassy soils. The model results show that although the presence of gas has a beneficial

Undrained shear strength in the surficial weathered crust

International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1987
Most geotechnical engineers feel that the undrained shear strength measured by the field vane in the surficial weathered crust cannot be fully mobilized during the failure of an embankment built of soft clay deposits. Consequently, the vane strength in the crust is generally reduced by some arbitrary means before stability calculations are performed ...

Variation in Undrained Shearing Strength by Semiconfined Tests

Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 1971
The undrained shearing strength of Welland clay is determined over a range of sample orientation of 180° by the use of semiconfined compression tests that limit failure to one direction, but allow failure on any plane in that direction. It is shown that the undrained shearing strength is very nearly symmetrical about i = 90° and that the Bjerrum ...

Undrained cyclic shear strength of crushable sands

International Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 2013
Because of their lightweight and highly crushable and compressible nature, pumiceous sands are problematic from engineering and construction viewpoints. There has been very little information on their liquefaction characteristics, and most empirical procedures available in evaluating the liquefaction potential of sands are derived primarily from hard ...

Determination of Undrained Shear Strength Characteristic Values

Vulnerability, Uncertainty, and Risk, 2014
This paper presents a Bayesian approach to determine characteristic values of the undrained shear strength Su profile for geotechnical analysis and design, particularly those using probability-based design codes. The approach integrates systematically the prior knowledge (e.g., engineering judgment/local experience) and a limited number of project ...

Relationship between Shear-Wave Velocity and Undrained Shear Strength of Peat

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2020

Uniaxial compressive and undrained shear strength of soil [PDF]

Proceedings of 10th Symposium on Doctoral Studies in Civil Engineering
Uniaxial compressive strength and undrained shear strength are among the most important soil parameters in geotechnical engineering. The unconsolidated undrained triaxial test and the falling cone test determine them. The uniaxial compressive strength of soil is the maximum compressive stress that the soil can withstand before failure in drained ...

Undrained shear strength assessment using piezocone and shear wave measurements

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Geotechnical Engineering, 2020
In this paper, a new approach is proposed to determine the undrained shear strength of intact clays using the undrained rigidity index inferred from piezocones and shear wave velocity measurements based on the theory of spherical cavity expansion. The derived cone factors are further simplified for young, uncemented (non-structured) clays to be solely ...
