Stress history is an important measurement in soils as it affects strength, stability, stiffness, and flow characteristics. The evaluation of the in-situ preconsolidation stress, or effective yield stress, from the results of piezocone penetration tests allows for an economical and expedient means to profile the stress history of clays, sands, and mixed...
View ArticleThis paper advances understanding of the key parameters controlling unconfined compressive strength (qu) of lime stabilized fine-grained soils by considering distinct specimen porosities (η), different lime types and contents and several curing temperatures and time periods. A sole empirical relationsh...
View ArticleA set of crosswise-loaded flexible piles was tested in binder stabilised top sand layers embedded in lightly bonded residual soil. Slope indicators were used to measure horizontal displacements in free-headed flexible piles during all loading stages. The geometry of the cement stabilised top sand layer surrounding the piles varied from about 2 to 4 time...
