Residual Shear Strengt by Multi-reversal Direct Shear
Residual Shear Strengt by Multi-reversal Direct Shear
(OP)
Hi all
My project is Residual shear strength along Shear layer.
I plan to run Multi-reversal Direct Shear in multistage(vary normal stress on same sample).Have anybody any good comments or ideas??? , thank you
!! I don't have a Ring Shear Test

Multi-stage may be okay if you don't have any granular material in the sample.

I may propose dividing the two halves by using a wire saw (to get a smoot flat shear surface) after you run the test once and got the peak values and then wait for the soil to consolidate at least 12hrs and then shear it again.
