Field Vane Shear Tests of Sensitive Cohesive Soils
The paper shows comparative test results which indicate that highly sensitive clays suffer a loss in strength not only during sampling but also in the preparation of test specimens. Uncertainty as to the magnitude of the effect of sample disturbance emphasizes the desirability of “in situ” tests in soils which change in mechanical properties as a result of distortion.
