Pore Pressure Build Up

The mechanism of dynamic tri-axial test is introduced in this paper and the dynamic responses of silt soft clay at Zhoushan are studied using a dynamic tri-axial test system. The laws of pore pressure build-up of the silt clay are obtained which are affected by the consolidation pressure and dynamic load. The greater the consolidation pressure and the dynamic loading is, the more the build-up of pore pressure is. However, the dynamic load has minor effect on pore pressure build-up under the anisotropic consolidation.
