Abstract
The relations of the various undrained geotechnical properties were, in depth, investigated for highly plastic soils using the numerous experimental testing results. The sensitivity is proportional to void ratio and OCR but inversely proportional to effective unit weight. The difference in Su(Un), Su(UU), and Su(FV) tends to increase or decrease with such sensitivity, void ratio, and OCR. The possibility of deducting the empirical equations denoting the correlations of various properties and the indicator for selecting appropriate testing method could be confirmed.
