... sediments can be collapsed or subsided. The triaxial test is a method for evaluating the mechanical properties of soil. Confining stress is applied to the specimen for simulating in-situ condition of the soil and axial loading is applied to induce shear failure. The modulus value can be derived through...

... framework in France, a high quality triaxial testing programme was carried out on clay specimens from an oilfield located in 1,300 metres of water. The paper describes the laboratory test procedure and the results obtained, comparing the results of SHANSEP testing with the results of other triaxial tests...

... in less plastic soils cored sample strengths were significantly less. Two procedures, one involving residual pore water pressure measurements and the other involving fabricating the strength profile through triaxial testing, are given to correct for sampling disturbance. These methods lead to estimated...
