Abstract:In the current research, the mechanical behavior of plastic concrete in cut-off walls of embankment dams has been investigated. To do so, several triaxial compression tests have been carried out on the specimens with various mix designs under different confining pressures. It has been observed that the compressive strength of such a material increases dramatically with the confining pressures applied on the samples. Moreover, the material behavior is substantially dependent on the confining pressure values; so… Show more
