Abstract

Abstract Influence of the rotation of principal stress directions on undrained shear strength. The paper presents the results of research on natural cohesive soil carried out in the Hollow Cylinder Apparatus (HCA). The main goal of this study was to determine the values of undrained shear strength at different angle of the rotation of principal stress directions. The research were carried out with anisotropic consolidation and shearing in undrained conditions (CAU) on cohesive soil with overconsolidation ratio (OCR) equals 4 and plasticity index (Ip) about 77%. The results of laboratory tests allow to assess the influence of the rotation of principal stress directions on undrained shear strength
