Experimental study on unsaturated direct shear and California bearing ratio tests with suction monitoring on sand-kaolin clay mixtures

The laboratory study on unsaturated soil may comprise the study of devices or apparatus used and the study of the behaviour of soil itself. In both, suction is the main issue of the study’s concern. One of the common devices for unsaturated soil strength-testing is a suction-controlled direct shear...
