5 Data Report No 841, 842, 881 & 891 Page1 ntroduction. During the last 15 years the Geotechnical Engineering Group (GEG) at Aalborg University has performed triaxial tests with a sand called Lund No. Lund No is a graded sand from a gravel pit near Horsens in Denmark. For the classification of the sand the following tests have been performed: Sieve test Grain density, ds Maximum, emax' and minimum, emin' void ratio. The strength parameters of Lund No are determined by some drained and undrained triaxial tests in the Danish Triaxial Cell. The Danish Triaxial Cell prescribes smooth pressure heads and specimens with equal height and diameter. Four series with d equal to.92, and.55 have been performed. Classification of the sand From sieve tests the following parameters have been determined /Jakobsen F.

Triaxial tests The triaxial tests have been performed in the Soil Mechanics Laboratory at Aalborg University. These tests have been performed with cylindrical specimens with height = diameter = 7 mm. n order to create homogeneous stress and strain conditions in the specimens smooth pressure heads are also used. To investigate the strength parameters of the sand four series of drained and undrained triaxial tests have been performed. Two of the series have been performed with dry sand while the two other series have been performed with saturated sand. Besides the strength parameters at failure the parameters to describe the characteristic state will also be investigated. This state is defined as O v = and is called the characteristic line CL.. Drained triaxial tests The drained triaxial tests performed on Lund No are listed in table 1, where test number, void ratio and stress level are typed.
