The Use of Laboratory Testing to Understand the Behavior of Collapsible Soil Upon WettingDenham, Martha H. 23 October 1992 (has links)
In developing a constitutive model that could predict the settlement due to the collapse, several goals needed to be met. These were to gain an understanding of the collapse phenomenon, knowing the soil properties at the natural water content and how they change after collapse, and develop and test the new model. It was felt that laboratory testing could be of use. The types of test conducted included use of the Oedometer, Pressuremeter, and Triaxial tests. The material that was used for the testing was a "generic" soil manufactured out of diatomite. In all of the tests the soil was tested dry and saturated in order to establish state limits of the soil. Next, the soil was loaded dry then inundated which initiated the collapse of the soil. The stress and strains were continually recorded. From the testing it was concluded that there is a stress-strain region where after collapse the soil looses considerable strength. With increasing stress and strain the soil eventually becomes stronger. From the triaxial tests, the stress-strain data from this "region of collapse" was used in a constitutive model. Stress paths from the Oedometer and Pressuremeter tests were then successfully applied to the model. The constitutive model used was an elasto plastic model. The elastic and plastic strain components were provided using functions for yielding, hardening, plastic potential, and failure as proposed by Paul Lade in his work on cohesionless, frictional materials. Results from the conventional triaxial shear tests and isotropic compression tests were used to derive the values of the functions for the model. The end result was three dimensional surfaces for failure, yielding, plastic work and plastic potential for the dry and saturated soil in the zone of collapse.

Consolidation, compression, and shear strength of four western Oregon forest soilsMcNabb, David H. 02 April 1990 (has links)
Forest soils with low bulk densities are often considered less
susceptible to compaction than soils with higher bulk densities. The
objective of this study was to determine if soil strength controlled the
compression of soils with low bulk density. Four soils were selected
for this evaluation. Three of these were andic soils with low bulk
density and the fourth soil was a more dense, cohesive soil.
Undisturbed samples of saturated and partly saturated soil were
compressed in a one-dimensional consolidation test apparatus.
Measurements with separate samples were at one of 7 normal stresses
between 0.033 and 1.96 MPa. Shear strength of saturated soil was
measured in direct shear tests. Primary consolidation of saturated
soil was completed in less than one minute at all normal stresses.
Shear stress and bulk density increased continuously during shear
strain. The compression index of the cohesive soil was significantly
larger (p<0.05) than that of the andic soils. The shear strength of
andic soils (average cohesion intercept of 0.016 MPa and friction angle
of 33.3°) was significantly higher (p<0.05) than the cohesive soil
(cohesion intercept of 0.028 MPa and friction angle of 28.9°). When
saturated, the cohesive soil was more compressible than the andic
soils because of lower soil strength. A nonlinear model of soil
compression was developed that accurately predicted the compressed
density of saturated and partly saturated soil as a function of normal
stress, initial bulk density of undisturbed samples, and degree of
saturation. As degree of saturation decreased, the compressibility of
the cohesive soil decreased more rapidly than it did for the andic soils.
As a result, bulk density of dry cohesive soil increased less than it did
for dry andic soils. Differences in the compressibility of soils were
attributed to texture and clay mineralogy. The differences in the
compressibility of these soils were much smaller than were the
differences in bulk density. Decreasing water content affected the
compressibility of the cohesive soil more than it affected the andic
soils. Because soil strength controls the compressibility of these
forest soils regardless of bulk density, it will also determine the
susceptibility of soils to compaction by machines. / Graduation date: 1991
