Little information is available on the shear parameters of coarse detrital soils. Because these conrain
large fragments, it is very difficult to determine their shear resistances. Apparatus and methods (of
laboratory and field types) for investigation of coarse detrital soils have not yet been perfected. Construction
Specification SNiP II-B.I-62 states that the normative pressures on bases of coarse detrital soils
should depend on the type and state of the filler. But in determining the shear parameters of the pore fillers
of such soils we meet almost insuperable difficulties owing to the need to prepare the filler while conserving
the natural state of density and wetness.
