Shear Strength and Compression Coefficient for Conditioned Sand Subjected to Earth Chamber Stress Levels

Abstract: Ground conditioning agents are often needed when performing earth pressure balance shield tunneling in sand soils due to its high internal friction, low plastic ductility, and low compressibility. In this work, vane shear and compression tests for standard sand were performed using a homemade test device, and three types of conditioning agents composed of foam, bentonite slurry, and polymer were used in the tests. The effects of the agents on shear strength and compressibility of the conditioned soils were inv… Show more

“…Compared with the prevalence of studies on unconstrained compressive strength and direct shear strength, there have been fewer studies on the consolidation characteristics of cement soil, especially modified cement soil. However, it is worth noting that due to the high compressibility of coastal soft soil, the issue of excessive deformation should not be underestimated [20,21,22,23,24]. Therefore, it is of great significance to further study the consolidation characteristics of coastal soft soil and modified coastal cement soil.…”
