Abstract:This paper presents a constitutive model referred to as the Cemented Cam Clay (CCC) model to precisely simulate the cementation degradation of cement treated clays. Various laboratory experiments show that the effect of cementation gradually diminishes as the confining pressure increases, particularly at high effective confining pressures, due to breakdown of cementation bonds. The main concepts and the formulations of CCC model, including elasto-plastic stress strain relationships, are presented within the fr… Show more
