Sir your videos are very helpful for aspiring geotechnical engineers. Could you please make a video on triaxial shear testing of remoulded clays. Thanks!

Thank you

[@blessingdembo7888]

very helpfull

[@musaaslantas5460]

thanks. but cant understand exactly. What percentage of water does the sample contain?

[@musaaslantas5460]

cause of dısturbed sample.. and what percentage? and what SI sieve?

[@partht92]

@@musaaslantas5460 U can add 10 % in dry soil sample(Clay) and all the soil should pass .425 mm sieve

[@adnankahvecitzx]

In this test, isn't UD sample necessary?

[@riponchandramalo5610]

an undisturbed sample is best for the consolidation test but if you don't have it, you can make a remolded sample from your Disturbed sample.

What method is this? ASTM / BS ???
