Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

A NEW HIGH-PRESSURE TRIAXIAL SHEAR TEST SYSTEM, DEVELOPED IN ORDER THAT ESTIMATED STRESSES IN SOIL IN PLACE COULD BE BETTER REPRODUCED IN LABORATORY SPECIMENS, IS DESCRIBED. A BRIEF REVIEW OF THE PRINCIPLE OF THE TRIAXIAL TEST IS FOLLOWED BY A DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPONENTS AND OPERATION OF THE NEW SYSTEM. /AUTH/
