Behavior of Cemented Reticulate Red Clay

Article Preview

Abstract:

Mechanical properties of cemented reticulate red clay were studied in present research. Test results show that: (1) shear strength of cemented reticulate red clay increase exponentially as the increasing of cement content; (2) shear strength of cemented reticulate red clay decrease polynomially as the increasing of water content; (3) mechanical properties of cemented reticulate red clay affected significantly by curing time and curing confined pressure. In order to study viscous properties of cemented reticulate red clay, cemented reticulate red clay specimens were compressed in triaxial chamber at different shear rate. Results of the compression tests show that it is obvious that the axial strain-deviator stress relationship of cemented reticulate red clay affects by the strain rate.
