The testing is an addition to the Barcelona Basic Model for partially saturated soils, which changes to a critical state model in saturated conditions. The idea of the tests was to investigate the possible existence of a relationship between the preconsolidation pressure (or yield pressure) and...
Hi,
I've recently run a few experiments to investigate the impact on changes in moisture content and dry density on the saturated preconsolidation pressure, and am a little confused on to how to conclude.
The test run were on a clayey silt, first compacted using the standard proctor method...
