A Study on the Engineering Properties of Alluvial Clays

This paper deals with the correlations between the results of the physical property tests and the mechanical property tests for estimating the mechanical indexes by the physical property test results. The soil samples were taken at changweon area, Gyeon-gsangnam-do, where the structures would be placed on the alluvial clay foundation. The outcomes of the study are as follows: 1. Judging from casagrande's plasticity chart, it is considered that the almost all soil samples belong to inorganic silty clay with medium plasticity (clay 14∼62%, silt 36∼73%, sand 1∼29%). The specific gravities are between 2.61 and 2.72, the wet unit weights 1.53g/㎤ and 1.93g/㎤, the liquid limits 28% and 51%, the plastic limits 15% and 31%, the plastic indexes 7% and 27%, the natural moisture contents 33% and 64%. 2. The unconfined compression strengths are between 0.07kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 0.77kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, the cohesions 0.04kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 0.37kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, the internal friction angles 0$^{\circ}$ and 9$^{\circ}$. 3. The consolidation tests show that the initial void ratios are between 0.68 and 1.68, the precompression loads 0.27kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 1.15kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, the compression indexes 0.12 and 0.59. 4. The correlations between the results of the physical property tests and the mechanical property tests for the soil samples are presented as follows: rt=0.011 (203-wn), Cc=0.025 (LL-27.2), Cc=0.46 (e0-0.58), Cc=0.013 (wn-23.2), C=0.021+qu/2.08, qu=2.268rt-3.635
