Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 土木工程研究所 === 82 === In order to understand how degree of saturation affects the collapse resistance of sands, undrained cyclic saturated and unsaturated triaxail tests were carried out on both Ottawa and Toyoura sand with the same relative density of 50% under the confining pressure 0.5 kgf/cm^2. Due to the compressibility of the pore air of unsaturated specimens, a volumme change surveying system was developed to get the degree of saturation. The result show that : (1) The collapse resistance increased with a decrease in degree of saturation. (2) The degree of saturation affects the collapse resistance of Ottawa sand more than that of Toyoura sand.
