PORE PRESSURE DISSIPATION FEATURES OF AN UNSATURATED COMPACTED SOIL

摘要: A cohesive soil was statically compacted at a range of moulding water contents near the optimum to form specimens having desired dry densities for different purposes pore pressure dissipation test. The induced under hydrostatic confining pressure, its rate dissipation, volume change specimen undrained condition, proportion air drained from were measured and degree saturation after consolidation determined. air-water configurations in with increase is discussed effect configuration on induction features presented.
