Prediction of Post-Yield Strain from Loading and Unloading Phases of Pressuremeter, Triaxial, and Consolidation Test Curves for Sustainable Embankment Design

Prediction of Post-Yield Strain from Loading and Unloading Phases of Pressuremeter, Triaxial, and Consolidation Test Curves for Sustainable Embankment Design

Exponential development of post-yield strain (Ԑpost) is a pivotal indicator of failure in embankments constructed on soft saturated clays. This paper characterizes saturated clay stratum comprising very soft to very stiff stratigraphy, with plasticity index (PI) ranging from 19% to 31%, by performin...
