Abstract:

The possibility of determining the resilient modulus of sand through repeated static loading triaxial test was investigated. Six different sands, with gradings ranging from very coarse to extremely fine, were tested. For each sand investigated, one triaxial specimen was prepared. Repeated static loading triaxial tests and cyclic loading triaxial tests were then carried out on the same specimen. Comparison of the resilient moduli obtained from both types of tests clearly showed the possiblity of determining resilient moduli in relatively simple-to-perform, repeated static loading triaxial tests.
