Abstract

During the initial impoundment of earth-rock dams, the slaking deformation of dam materials often leads to settlement, thus inducing cracks. The existing slaking tests are mainly applicable to coarse-grained materials, but there are few studies on the slaking tests of clay materials. In order to explore the suitable slaking test method for clay, the Single Line Method and Double Line Method were used to carry out the slaking test on the clay material of the core wall of Daxigou reservoir. The specific test principles and processes of the two methods are explained, and the test results are sorted out and plotted. The analysis of the test results shows that the test process of Single Line Method is closer to the actual immersion process of the earth-rock dam, and the test data is more accurate; If analyzed from a safety perspective, the test results of the Double Line Method also have reference value.
