Suction-monitored direct shear apparatus: A simple device for unsaturated soil testing
Two very common devices used in unsaturated shear strength tests are suction-controlled direct shear apparatus and triaxial devices. During the tests, matric suction is applied to the specimen by controlling pore air and pore water pressure. Compared to using triaxial device, the suction-controlled...
