Experimental Studies of Suction-Monitored Direct Shear Apparatus on Perth Poorly Graded Sand

Perth, Western Australia is a semi arid climate area. A soil characteristic at a near surface layer is relatively dry due to the deep water table, low humidity and high rate of evaporation. Subsurface exploration carried out in this study indicated that most soils in Perth are classified as poorly g...
