Study on Physical and Mechanical Characteristics of Q2 Loess and Micro-Structure Properties in Li-Shan

Article Preview

Abstract:

The physical and mechanical properties and microstructure of Q2 loess are of great theoretical and practical significance. Through studying these properties which Q2 loess samples are taken in the Xi'an city of Lin-tong District of Mount Li, the results show that: (1)Natural water content, wet density, liquid and solid index, shear strength, collapsible coefficient compressive modulus; (2)By means of the scanning electron microscope to study the picture of the loess micro-structure, there are some preliminary understanding of micro-structure’s basic characteristics; (3)Using scanning electron microscopy techniques to observe the loess micro-structure, As the performance of the loess micro-structure’s basic unit-body and its arrangement form, the loess micro-structure is the reflection of its physical and mechanical properties, Meanwhile the change of physical and mechanical properties also show the unstability of the loess micro-structure.
