Introduction Laterite is a widely distributed in tropical, subtropical humid regions with special engineering geological properties of the soil, which constituents of kaolinite and illite mainly.
The relationship between axial strain curves of Figure 2.2 and figure 2.3 Fig 2.1σ 1- σ3-εa (λ =0.8 ) Fig 2.2σ 1- σ3-εa (λ =0.85 ) Fig 2.3 σ 1- σ3-εa(λ =0.9 ) From the graph 2.1, graph 2.3 knowable, three different compaction under different confining pressure, principal stress difference with the axial strain is increased, and the principal stress difference and axial strain curve is close to the hyperbolic; the same degree of compaction, the axial stress in the principal stress difference at the same time, with the increase of confining pressure and increases, the initial tangent modulus also increases with confining pressure; the same under the same confining pressure, axial strain, principal stress difference with the compaction degree increase, improve compaction to improve the soil shear strength is an important engineering gnificance.
So improve compaction to improve the soil shear strength under the same confining pressure is an important engineering method.

Comparative Study on the Hysteresis Performance of the Metal Rubber Vibration Isolating Bearing with Different Height-Width Ratio Parameter Yanguo Zhou1, a, Jian Jiang2,b 1 Department of Engineering Mechanics, School of Civil Engineering, Wuhan University, China 2 Institute of Seismology, CEA, Wuhan 430071, China a zhouyanguowhu@126.com, b ltaxjj@qq.com Keywords: Vibration Isolating Bearing, Hysteresis Performance, Metal Rubber Material, Height-width Ratio, Dynamic Model Method Abstract.
Some conclusions will be very useful for the practical engineering application of the Metal Rubber material.
In practical engineering, the larger energy dissipation will be advantageous, but the larger effective shear stiffness should be in some limitation due to the requirement of the horizontal flexibility, so the selection of the H-W ratio of the MR vibration isolating bearing become an important issue in the structural seismic isolation design.
