1. 1. Evaluating the Undrained Shear Strength of Sulphide-Bearing Soils in the Sundsvall Area

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Gustaf Holm; [2022]
   Keywords : Clay; cone factor; CONRAD; CPT; fall cone; field vane test; reduction; CONRAD; CPT; fallkonförsök; konfaktor; lera; reduktion; vingförsök;

   Abstract : Sulphide soils in Sweden are mainly found along the northeast coastline. These soils area characterized by their fine grain size, low shear strength and black, or grey, color. These soils are also found further south, in the Sundsvall area in Västernorrland, but have slightly lower sulphide content there. READ MORE

3. 2. Evaluation of cone factors for CPT-evaluation in CONRAD of sulphide- bearing soil in Mälardalen

   University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

   Author : Matilda Garpefjäll; Hugo Hildingsson; [2020]
   Keywords : Sulphide soil; clay; CPT-evaluation; CONRAD; Mälardalen; Sulfidjord; lera; CPT-utvärdering; CONRAD; Mälardalen;

   Abstract : The purpose of this master thesis is to investigate how to evaluate CPT-soundings in sulphide soilfrom Mälardalen in CONRAD. The objective is to conclude whether sulphide soil from Mälardalenshould be evaluated with existing methods or a new method should be developed. READ MORE

4. 3. Empirical correlation between undrained shear strength and preconsolidation pressure in Swedish soft clays

   University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

   Author : Erik Persson; [2017]
   Keywords : undrained shear strength; preconsolidation pressure; empirical correlations; fall cone test; direct simple shear test; correction factor; soft clay; odränerad skjuvhållfasthet; förkonsolideringstryck; empiriska korrelationer; fallkonförsök; direkta skjuvförsök; korrektionsfaktor; lera;

   Abstract : The undrained shear strength and preconsolidation pressure are key parameters in describing the characteristics of soft clays. The two parameters both reflect the clay’s structure and state of stress, and hence empirical correlations for undrained shear strength normalized with respect to preconsolidation pressure are widely used to assess soil behavior.

5. 4. Analysis of undrained shear strength from drop-cone tests

   University essay from Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskap; Tekniska högskolan

   Author : Mattias Hammerman; Robert Karlsson; [2011]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The Swedish Geotechnical Institute, SGI, has been given the assignment of mapping the risk of landslides in the area by the river Göta älv. Tests were made to determine the shear strength of soil on land and in the river. READ MORE
