A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Extensive data of the strength and dilatancy of 17 sands in axisymmetric or plane strain at different densities and confining pressures are collated. The extra angle of shearing of 'dense' soil is correlated to its rate of dilation and thence to its relative density and mean effective stress, combined in a new relative dilatancy index. The practical consequences of these new correlations are assessed, with regard to both laboratory and field testing procedures.
