Discussion: The influence of the membrane restraint on the measured strength of a soil sample along a single shear plane in the triaxial test

Abstract: Skopek and Ter-Stepanian are to be complimented for their Note on the liquid limit as determined by the two methods in use at present-the method proposed by Casagrande and the Swedish cone method proposed by Vasilev. The two methods give considerably differing results, particularly in case of clays of high plasticity. The present practice may thus lead to errors in interpreting the results of investigations reported by various authors. Moreover, the index of plasticity which depends on the liquid limit is in m… Show more
