Web3.1 Simple Shear Tests Three types of simple shear tests are the uncon-fined compression, cone, and vane shear tests. The unconfined compression test is usually per-formed on a … WebSummary of Test Method 2.1 The vane shear test basically consists of placing a four-bladed vane in the undisturbed soil and rotating it from the surface to determine the torsional force required to cause a cylindrical surface to be sheared by the vane; this force is then converted to a unit shearing resistance of the cylindrical surface. ian anderson enter the uninvited

Webrotating vane was not measured, and so a correction to the conventional (e.g.: ASTM) “vane factor” was required. For the vane geometry used (see Figure E.2) the required vane correction factor was found to be 0.84 times the conventional vane factor if the vane had been adequately embedded as to register full “top of vane” shear resistance.

Residual shear strength is defined to be measured after 90° of vane rotation. In contrast, remolded shear strength is dependent on whether it is measured by vane remolding or hand remolding. To accomplish vane remolding, a … ian anderson fine art
