Hello Everyone.
I am conducting a thesis into the Engineering Behaviour of Calcareous soils,
and I am about to carry out some soaked CBR tests.
The primary tests showed that there is considerably difference between the
CBR of the top and bottom of soaked samples (more than 400%). I am in need
of literature on this subject to evaluate my testing program and to have a
better judgement of the interpretation of the results. Can anyone point me
to publications, which give information on the difference between the
strength of the top and bottom of samples?
I am also interested in hearing of any cases where the use of ground
improvement methods may have been implicated in Calcareous Soils.
I appreciate your response.
