| description | This document provides laboratory test methods for the determination of the effective shear strength of soils by direct shear within the international field of geotechnical engineering. The tests have not previously been standardized internationally. It is intended that this document presents broad good practice and significant differences with national documents are not anticipated. It is based on international practice (see Reference [1]). This document specifies two methods for the determination of the effective shear strength of soils under consolidated drained conditions using either a shearbox or a ring shear device. The shearbox test is generally used for the determination of peak effective shear strength parameters of soils. The ring shear test is generally used for the determination of residual effective shear strength parameters of fine grained soils. Residual effective shear strength parameters can also be obtained from shearbox tests and peak effective shear strength parameters can also be obtained from ring shear tests. |
