Shear Strength and Compression Coefficient for Conditioned Sand Subjected to Earth Chamber Stress Levels

Ground conditioning agents are often needed when performing earth pressure balance shield tunneling in sand soils due to its high internal friction, low plastic ductility, and low compressibility. In this work, vane shear and compression tests for standard sand were performed using a homemade test d...
