Strength Properties of Sand by Tilting Test, Box Shear Test and Plane Strain Compression Test

Umetsu, Kimio

Abstract This report describes comparative examinations of several sands’ strength properties using tilting test, box shear test and plane strain compression test. The soil behaviors in these tests are under plane strain condition in common. In tilting test a handy tilting box was contrived to research strength anisotropy with facility. In box shear test a new apparatus which applies stress uniformly was devised to make comparative discussion theoretically with the results of plane strain compression test.
