CONTENT SUMMARY
INTRODUCTION
Triaxial test is known to be the most versatile test to predict the soil behaviour in terms of its strength. This course is an introductory course to understand about the basic principles of Triaxial Test and the engineering parameters involved in this test. The analysis and interpretation of the strength of soils will be also be covered in this course to understand how the soils behave upon loading. Another important aspect in this test is describing the stress state of soil using the concept of stress path which will also be covered in this course briefly.
- Introduction to Triaxial Testing
- Strength of Soils: Analysis and interpretation
- Stress Paths and soil tests: An Overview
OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Describe the principles of Triaxial testing
- Interpret the strengths of clay and sand
- Describe the stress state of soils during loading or unloading
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
- Undergraduate students in soil mechanics research area.
- Postgraduate students in soil mechanics research area.
