ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT: The stress-strain characteristics of saturated soil are researched systematically under different confining pressure, initial dry density, initial water content, shearing rate and drainage condition. The inherent unity of diversity of shearing strength for the same samples measured by different experimental methods is indicated according to the normalization of critical state test results. And the failure lines in space of remoulded saturated expansive soil under consolidated drained and undrained condition are attained.
