Flow and Fracture Properties of Seattle Clays
The author reviews and analyzes some of the most important shear strength theories of soils that have been advanced since the early 1930's. The author shows that the shear behavior of Seattle clays cannot be analyzed by conventional strength theories because the failure stress depends on time and the failure strain depends on the level of stress. Consequently, he proposes a new shear strength theory that considers time effects and defines the design strength of a soil exhibiting time-dependent shear behavior at the creep limit.
