The most important thing is to find out the friction angle of c- soil which is useful for the fields. Bangkok shear strength ratio and friction angle ( ') of CIUC, CKoUC, and Clay has an activity of about unity and its relationship between LL DSS tests for NC clay as shown in Eqs.

The drained shear strength is the shear strength of the soil when pore fluid pressures, generated during the course of shearing the soil, are able to dissipate during shearing.

The soil is free to dilate or contract during shear if the soil is drained. However, the transition from plastic to liquid behavior is gradual over a range of water contents, and the shear strength of the soil is not actually zero at the liquid limit. The Atterberg limits can be used to distinguish between silt and clay and to distinguish between different types of silts and clays. Heck, simple uconfined compression tests can tell a lot if you have soil that can be tested with Atterberg limits. In bedded/foliated rocks, particular attention needs to be given to loading direction with respect to bedding/foliation. . <>
We have received your request and will respond promptly. Guys thanks for that. . A high value of PI indicates an excess of clay in the soil and that results in greater plasticity of that soil. <>

The errors from testing (say 5% of the normal stress) can shift your Mohr circles left or right quite a bit, thus either steepening the angle or more commonly altering the cohesion itercept significantly.

I'd re-do the tests or try other forms of strength testing. Cohesion is the force that holds together molecules or like particles within a soil. It is called associated plasticity, if the angle of dilation is equal to the angle of internal friction. BTSprovides a measure of rock toughness, as well as strength.

Shear strength, cohesion, and friction angle all have obvious turning points when OC = 7.5% and OC = 37.5%. By contrast, cohesion takes place between similar molecules. .

Another method to determine the tensile strength, also commonly not used, is by bending a sample. An example of this is rapid loading of sands during an earthquake, or the failure of a clay slope during heavy rain, and applies to most failures that occur during construction.

As Big H hints at, with clays, the variability in the actual value of phi' is minor compared to making sure the right strength "paradigm" is being considered.
