Soil Behaviour

The critical state theory is a robust conceptual framework for the characterisation of soil behaviour. In the laboratory, triaxial tests are used to assess the critical state locus. In the last decades, the equipment and testing procedures for soil characterisation, within the critical state framework, have advanced to obtain accurate and reliable results. This review paper summarises and describes a series of recommended laboratory procedures to assess the critical state locus in cohesionless soils. For this purpose, results obtained in the laboratory from different cohesionless soils and triaxial equipment configurations are compiled, analysed and discussed in detail. The procedures presented in this paper reinforce the use of triaxial cells with lubricated end platens and an embedded connection piston into the top-cap, together with the verification of the full saturation condition and the measurement end-of-test water content—preferable using the soil freezing technique. The experimental evidence and comparison between equipment configurations provide relevant insights about the laboratory procedures for obtaining a reliable characterisation of the critical state locus of cohesionless geomaterials. All the procedures recommended herein can be easily implemented in academic and commercial geotechnical laboratories.
