EFFECTS OF SAMPLING ON ARTIFICIALLY RECONSTRUCTED COHESIVE SOILS. PROCEEDINGS OF THE ELEVENTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOIL MECHANICS AND FOUNDATION ENGINEERING, SAN FRANCISCO, 12-16 AUGUST 1985

The disturbance due to sampling and specimen preparation for establishing the oedometric parameters is analysed in the paper. The experimental study considered artificially reconstructed soil mixtures of various plasticity which have undergone preconsolidation. The comparisons and analysis refer to stresses in the normally consolidated field. For the covering abstract of the conference see IRRD 287689. (TRRL)
