Executive Summary | Saturated clays rebound when a part of confining pressure is removed. Strength of soils in over-consolidated state is smaller than that before the removal of a consolidation pressure. In practice,rebound of soil is likely to take place when a soil sample is left for long time after sampling or when a part of surface loading is removed in a pre-loading work. |
