Natural parameter effects on Shear strength and compressibility [Literature help needed]

Natural parameter effects on Shear strength and compressibility [Literature help needed]

Natural parameter effects on Shear strength and compressibility [Literature help needed]

(OP)
Hi,

I am in need of detailed literature reviews of some basic soil properties on soil shear strength and compressibility i.e how these properties affect the shear strength and compressibility. Any book or journal will be suffice.

The natural parameters I consider:

Temperature
Moisture Content
GW location
Particle Size
Particle Distribution
Salinity
Permeability (Drainage condition)
Fluid contaminant (Excluding Salinity)
Disturbance

Thank you in advance.
