Product Description:
Developments in the measurement and interpretation of advanced laboratory stress-strain testing of geomaterials are discussed in this text, which includes a collection of case studies which apply the test results. Most of the articles were produced through the activities of the technical committee No 29 (TC-29) on "Stress-Strain Testing of Geomaterials in the Laboratory" of the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE) between the years 1994 and 2000. ;The volume includes coverage of: detailed testing procedures of the advanced laboratory stress-strain testing of geomaterials including the triaxial and torsional shear tests, which are relevant to the geotechnical design in general and the prediction of ground deformation and structural displacement; the results obtained from a series of international round robin tests (static and dynamic tests) on clay, sand and softrock and their interpretation; the link between the results from static tests (monotonic and cyclic loading) and dynamic tests (the resonant-column tests and the bender element tests); country reports on the stress-strain testing in the laboratory in several countries; country reports on case histories in which advanced laboratory stress-strain played an essential role in predicting ground deformation and structural displacement; and individual technical papers relating to the objectives of TC-29.
