Effects of Clay and Moisture Content on Direct Shear Tests for Clay-Sand Mixtures
The direct shear test using shear box is commonly recommended by practicing geotechnical engineers to obtain the cohesion and angle of internal friction for granular soils. The clay liners involve sand as a main constituent with added clay of variable proportions. This research aims at investigating...
