  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. Geomechanical testing of non-hardening grout : for determination of flowability and strength properties

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geoteknologi

    Author : Axel Barrdahl; [2022]
    Keywords : Non-hardening; Grout; Embankment dam; Repair; Fall cone; Uniaxial Compressive Strength; UCS; Triaxial;

    Abstract : Due to an increasing amount of aging tendencies in Swedish embankment dams, failures such as internal erosion has become a more common problem. Internal erosion is a phenomenon where certain soil material within the embankment dam is removed, often over a longer period of time. READ MORE

  4. 3. CPTu Configuration Impact on Evaluated Undrained Shear Strength

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Mårten Mjöberg; Axel Stenfors; [2020]
    Keywords : Cone Penetration Testing; Fields trials; Soil mechanics; Evaluated undrained shear strength.;

    Abstract : This thesis evaluates the commonly used geotechnical probing method CPTu, on how different probe configurations impact the resulting evaluated undrained shear strength in soft clay deposits, in comparison to each other and laboratory methods. This is done by performing field investigations on Lindefältet, Södermanlands län, Sweden. READ MORE

  5. 4. 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

  6. 5. Assessment of using liquidity index for the approximation of undrained shear strength of clay tills in Scania

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Dagnija Andreasson; [2019]
    Keywords : clay till; undrained shear strength; liquidity index; CPT; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Undrained shear strength is a crucial parameter of the clay-rich sediments commonly used in the design process of geotechnical structures and is determined by several tests. As a considerable part of these tests are cost- and time consuming, it is of interest to investigate the potential relationship with shear strength (cu) with alternative, easily measurable parameters, such as liquidity index (IL).
