Abstract

This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation on the temperature effects on the undrained shear strength and stiffness of normally consolidated (NC) soft Bangkok clay specimen under drained heating conditions. Details of modified triaxial test apparatus that can handle temperatures up to 100oC are also presented. The clay was found to exhibit temperature induced increase in shear strength and stiffness, and an apparent overconsolidation state after subjecting the NC specimen to drained heating-cooling condition.
