Abstract
In a design, soils are separated the sand and the clay, and it is evaluated by different methods. However, there is actually soil called intermediate soil, in the present situation that is struggling in its handling. On the existing ground, since soil particles with different particle sizes and properties are mixed in the soil, it is problem the act of treating a matter separately mixture sand, sand and clay. Therefore, it is desirable to conduct a unified evaluation of mixed soils mixed with various types of soil as mentioned above. In this study, in a design, focusing on the rigidity which is one of the important elements, mixing natural clay and silica sand in various proportions, making the specimen has granular structure by sand by a method of compacting with a predetermined energy, doing bender element test, and attempt evaluate shear modulus and fines of sand-soil mixture.
