A SIMPLE METHOD FOR OBTAINING UNDISTURBED SOIL SAMPLE FOR CBR DETERMINATION

A SIMPLE ARRANGEMENT FOR COLLECTING UNDISTURBED SOIL SAMPLES FOR DETERMINING THE CBR VALUE OF ROAD BASES AND SUBGRADES HAS BEEN DEVELOPED BY MAKING USE OF HARD STEEL CORE CUTTERS OF THE SAME INTERNAL DIMENSIONS AS THE STANDARD CBR MOLDS. THE PERCENT-AREA RATIO OF THE CORE CUTTERS IS 8.5. THE METHOD FOR COLLECTING UNDISTURBED SAMPLES BY THE NEW ARRANGEMENT HAS BEEN EXPLAINED AND ILLUSTRATED AND THE RESULTS COMPARED WITH IN SITU TEST RESULTS. /AUTHOR/
