Geophysical Determination of Cross Anisotropic Stiffness Properties of Soils
Particulate materials such as soils are inherently anisotropic with respect to stiffness and strength properties. Anisotropic mechanical properties are not routinely assessed, yet differences in material properties can influence design-based calculations. The paper presents a methodology for assessing anisotropic shear properties of particulate materials in situ. The method is based upon the measurement of seismic shear wave velocities via improved and extended crosshole testing techniques. Measurements completed at multiple test sites demonstrate ability of the methodology to assess anisotropic shear modulus of soils.
