Consolidated drained triaxial compression test on water saturated soils 115 experimental

The consolidated drained triaxial test (CD) aims to the determination of triaxial shear strength under compression loading. The cylindrical specimen, which can comprise undisturbed, re-compacted, remoulded or reconstituted soil, is subjected to an isotropic or an anisotropic stress under drained conditions and thereafter is sheared under undrained or drained conditions. The test allows the determination of shear strength, stress-strain relationships and effective stress paths.

fr L'essai triaxial consolidé drainé (CD) a pour objectif la détermination en laboratoire de la résistance au cisaillement triaxial en conditions de chargement par compression. L’éprouvette cylindrique, pouvant être constituée de sol non remanié, recompacté, remanié ou reconstitué, est soumise à une contrainte isotrope ou anisotrope avec un drainage et est ensuite cisaillée avec ou sans drainage. L’essai permet de déterminer la résistance au cisaillement, les relations contrainte-déformation et les chemins de contraintes effectives.
