Swelling measurements and prediction of heave for lacustrine clay
Swelling characteristics of post-glacial lacustrine clay were studied by means of standard consolidation apparatus; amount of swelling was measured for undisturbed specimens and remolded specimens prepared to constant initial conditions; specimens were allowed to swell under various surcharge loads; empirical relationship was obtained between volume change, surcharge load, and initial water content; swelling pressure for no volume change was obtained by three experimental procedures for different initial water contents and compared to values calculated from physicochemical equations.
