31 Conclusions Samples are destructurized by high loading and by swelling deformation parameters are significantly changed (C c, s ) Destructurization/debonding by swelling is explained by the limit of feasible stresses (MC-criterion) K 0 OCR relation depend on formation and lab-test procedure For Palaeogene clays of high plasticity OCR is not perfect as a state parameter Due to destructurization/debonding the clay forgets preconsolidation stress when unloaded significantly Acknowledgements: We thank Fehmarn Belt A/S for access to results and for the opportunity to perform tests on samples from Fehmarn Belt A/S. 31 DTU Civil Engineering, Technical University of Denmark
