Use of Linear Extrapolation to Estimate Critical State Void Ratio from Drained Triaxial Shear Tests on Dense Cohesionless Soil

Within the strain level attainable in drained triaxial tests, it is not uncommon for dense cohesionless soil to be sheared insufficiently to reach the critical state. Linear fitting of the correlative data from the maximum stress ratio or minimum dilatancy to the end of the test, and then extrapolat...
