PREDICTION OF SHEAR BEHAVIOUR OF JOINTS USING PROFILES
The stress path for a series of constant stiffness direct shear tests has been predicted using the Ladanyi and Archambault variable dilation shear equation. The tests were performed on highly weathered mudstone abutting concrete, to simulate side resistance socketed pile performance. The joint profiles have been analysed statistically to determine relevant properties for use in a simple triangular model for the purposes of this prediction. The proposed method has been tested in the prediction of a side resistance socketed pile load test. Remarkably good agreement is achieved. (Author/TRRL)
