Abstract:

In order to identify the relationship between pressuremeter tests and indoor tests, the pressuremeter tests and uniaxial tests were performed and the comparisons between the test results were analyzed. The results indicate that the pressuremeter creep curve presents a decaying form; while a progressive flow stage appears in the uniaxial test once the frozen soil is broken. The stress-strain curves of pressuremeter test manifest a strain-hardening character with an initial quasi-elastic stage; while the uniaxial test shows a strain-softening stress-strain curve with peak strength at the axial strain of 10%. At the same temperature, the shear strength as well as the initial deformation modulus of pressuremeter test are greater than those of uniaxial tests; and the difference increases with the decreasing of temperature.

Key words: pressuremeter test, uniaxial compression test, shear strength, initial deformation modulus
