Abstract:The effect of variation in cement content, initial water content, void ratio, and curing time on wave velocity (low-strain property) and unconfined compressive strength (large-strain property) of a cemented sand is examined in this paper. The measured pulse velocity is compared with predictions made using empirical and analytical models, which are mostly based on the published results of resonant column tests. All specimens are made by mixing silica sand and gypsum cement (2.5 to 20 % by weight) and tested und… Show more
