Test Investigation on Mechanical of Unsaturated Loess

Abstract:

Compression and collapse of unsaturated compacted loess are studied by using dry density and water content which easily controlled in engineering, the controlling range of dry density and water content are confirmed respectively. Then the deformation of compression and collapse and the frequency of engineering damager occurrence can be decreased. In addition, the mechanical characteristics of loess in different directions may differ because the loess was consolidated only under the condition of its upper weight of soil and load. The conventional mechanical experiments, including one-dimensional compress and collapse test, were conducted with the specimen of loess soil in different angle from the original horizontal plane. The test result shows that the loess is anisotropic
