Abstract:This investigation is carried out to study the shear strength of soils using the new Torvane technical device in three selected sites in the studied area, which are Al-Thyala, Al-Bakaerly, and Street 80 in Hilla city. The physical indexes and engineering properties tests were used to determine the natural water content, Atterberg limits, particle size distribution of soils, shear strength of soils by Torvane Technical, moisture-density relationships of soils and unconfined compressive strength. Undisturbed sam… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
