Characteristics and Engineering Application of Luoyang Sand and Pebble Soil
The indoor and on-site test results of Luoyang sand and gravel soil show that for sand and gravel soil with a moisture content of about 3.92%and a coarse particle content of P5 of about 75.96%,the cohesive force c is 10.64 kPa,and the internal friction angle φ is At26 °.According to the on-site plate load test,the characteristic value of the bearing capacity of the sand and gravel foundation in the study area is 1 000 kPa.Due to differences in moisture content,particle size distribution,and experimental conditions,most of the sand and gravel soil re-lated characteristics obtained in the study can be used for future engineering applications or research,but internal friction angle data still needs to be obtained through experiments.
