Effect of pore-size distribution on unsaturated shear strength of residual soil from sedimentary Jurong formation by Ong, Weilin.

“…A change in the matric suction in the soil causes a change in water volume in an unsaturated soil, which in turn affects the unsaturated shear strength of the soil. The aim of the project is to investigate the effect of pore-size distribution on unsaturated shear strength of residual soil from Jurong Formation. …”
