Influence of soil stiffness and lateral stress on the results of in-situ soil tests

The results of in-situ tests depend on the strength, stiffness and permeability properties of the ground, as well as the in-situ stresses. Laboratory and theoretical studies have shown that two quantities are particularly important in the understanding of in-situ tests: the horizontal stress and the...
