TEMPERATURE EFFECT ON PRECONSOLIDATION PRESSURE

Results from a comprehensive study of how an increase in temperature affects primarily the preconsolidation pressure is presented. Included in the study were five different clays with varying geological history and composition in order to relate the significance of temperature to different soil properties. Employed were conventional incremental oedometer tests as well as constant rate of strain tests (CRS tests).
