Download or read book Laboratory Manual for Geotechnical Characterization of Fine Grained Soils written by Alan J. Lutenegger and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-06-20 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual presents procedures for performing advanced laboratory tests on fine-grained soils. It covers characterization tests, which determine soil composition and quantify the individual components of a soil, and behavioral tests, such as the Atterberg Limits tests that demonstrate how the fines fraction of a soil reacts when mixed with water and the Linear Shrinkage Test that demonstrates how much a soil shrinks. The material goes beyond traditional evaluation of basic soil behavior by presenting more advanced laboratory tests to characterize soil in more detail. These tests provide detailed compositional characteristics which identify subtle changes in conditions and vertical variations in the soil, and which help to explain unusual behavior. A unique compilation of information on key soil tests Combines characterization tests with behavior tests The book suits graduate students in geotechnical engineering, as well as practitioners and researchers.

Download or read book A Simple Shear Test for Saturated Cohesive Soils written by E. A. Sibley and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A simple torsional vane shear device has been developed which provides a reliable and rapid measure of the shear strength of saturated cohesive soils. This device can be used both in the field and in the laboratory. It is lightweight, inexpensive, and easy to use. For an extensive foundation investigation with a large laboratory testing program, the torsional vane shear device will provide rapid results and will supplement the over-all program. For small investigations, this device can be used in evaluating site conditions and may reduce or, in some cases, eliminate laboratory testing. This paper describes the development and application of the device.

Download or read book Correlations of Soil and Rock Properties in Geotechnical Engineering written by Jay Ameratunga and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-11 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a one-stop reference to the empirical correlations used extensively in geotechnical engineering. Empirical correlations play a key role in geotechnical engineering designs and analysis. Laboratory and in situ testing of soils can add significant cost to a civil engineering project. By using appropriate empirical correlations, it is possible to derive many design parameters, thus limiting our reliance on these soil tests. The authors have decades of experience in geotechnical engineering, as professional engineers or researchers. The objective of this book is to present a critical evaluation of a wide range of empirical correlations reported in the literature, along with typical values of soil parameters, in the light of their experience and knowledge. This book will be a one-stop-shop for the practising professionals, geotechnical researchers and academics looking for specific correlations for estimating certain geotechnical parameters. The empirical correlations in the forms of equations and charts and typical values are collated from extensive literature review, and from the authors' database.
