Considering fundamental behaviour of granular materials ranging from clays to road aggregates, this text shows how observed properties can be classified and correlated for use in determining parameters for constitutive laws. Mainly remoulded soils are treated in the text.
Contents: Mechanics of particular media; Continuity hypothesis; Compression tests; Normally consolidated behaviour; Overconsolidated behaviour; Oedometric path; Classification of and correlations between the parameters; Three- dimensional behaviour - Effect of the intermediate principal stress; Anisotropy; Cyclic behaviour of soils.
