Abstract
Experiments to investigate how blocking in cage wheels occurs showed three possible mechanisms. It was found that these mechanisms were strong functions of lug slip and lug spacing (the angular spacing between two consecutive lugs), in Bangkok clay soil at 49% (d.b.) moisture content. The blocking process observed at 100% slip was found to be the most likely mechanism by which cage wheels block in wet soil in practice.
