The Undisturbed Consolidation Behavior of Clay
Quantitative methods for correcting the results of the laboratory consolidation test for the effects of sample disturbance are presented. These methods are developed by attempting to answer several questions: What is the basic laboratory behavior and field behavior of a consolidating clay? How is this behavior modified by sample disturbance? What is the pattern of such modifications? These patterns are used as a basis for estimating, by extrapolation, the completely undisturbed conditions. Finally, an example of the results obtained by the use of the suggested methods is presented.
