Abstract
To study the strength and yield behaviors of the modified soil, a series of triaxial compression tests were carried out for modified silty clay with different contents of red Pisha sandstone and carbide slag, respectively. The test results showed that the strength variation of the modified soils are obviously nonlinear with the hydrostatic pressure increasing, and the nonlinear strength can be described by a modified critical state function. Then, the friction angle and the cohesive force of the modified soils were obtained according to the nonlinear Mohr-Coulomb equation, and the relationships between the friction angle, the cohesive force, and the hydrostatic pressure were studied. Finally, the yield behavior of the modified soil was investigated based on a generally criterion, and the yield surface of the modified soils locates between the SMP criterion and the Lade-Duncan criterion. This study will help to understand the strength and yield characteristics of modified soils.
