An approach to evaluation of field CPTU dissipation data in overconsolidated fine-grained soils

Campanella, R., Robertson, P. K., Woeller, D., Sully, J.
Abstract: Dissipation of excess pore pressures during piezocone testing in firm to stiff overconsolidated fine-grained soils provides data curves that cannot be interpreted using published theoretical solutions. Available solutions are based on either cavity-expansion or strain-path methods,...

Reclamation of slurry materials such as mine tailings requires effective management of consolidation-induced water release in the long-term. This is particularly challenging for flocculated or thickened tailings which require excessive time to fully consolidate to the final landform due to their...

Large-strain consolidation theory is widely used for the management of dredged disposal sites. The theory is universally accepted to deal with this problem, though the determination of the material properties is not yet standardised. Decisions made on this level can lead to the prediction of a...
