- Abstract
The shear strength of coarse-grained soil is usually measured through a large-scale direct shear test. However, the dynamic change of the shear surface during the test has an effect on the calculation of the shear strength of coarse-grained soil. This paper put forward the formula for the dynamic shear area, determined the dynamic shear area of the DHJ50-2 type superimposed ring shear test machine with the formula and carried out error analysis. In this paper, the shear strength tests of four kinds of homogeneous coarse-grained soils with different particle sizes in Nyang River Valley were carried out, and the shear strength was corrected with the dynamic shear area. The results showed that, for the DHJ50-2 type superimposed ring shear test machine, there was 15.10% error between the shear area with maximum shear displacement and the unchanged one; both the peak shear stress and internal friction angle of four kinds of coarse-grained soil were higher after correction while the cohesiveness of most coarse-grained soil decreased; and after correction, the peak shear stress of most samples was backward with the shear displacement.
