Preliminary Study on the Reduction in Shear Strength Parameters of Gypseous Soil upon Wetting

The main aim of the study is to provide a preliminary formula to estimate the reduction in shear strength parameters of gypseous soil exhibited when soaked in water. Experimental work has been conducted using direct shear test on undisturbed samples with three different gypsum contents 4 %, 28 %, an...
