Figure 5.9. (e NC -e OC ) and (e sp -e OC ) parameters of the generalized
overconsolidated behavior
There is no well-established model for clean sands. Biarez and Hicher [BIA 94]
propose C c = 0.20 for d 60 /d 10 < 2. This the one we have adopted.
The model for C s is not well established for clays and even less so for sands.
Nevertheless, in accordance with some experimental data [FAV 80, SAI 97], we
have adopted the following models:
C c = 0.009( w L - 13) C c /C s = 4 for clays
C c = 0.20 C c /C s = 10 for clean sands
For clean sands, Saim [SAI 97] researched the correlations between ( e NC - e OC )
and ( e sp - e OC ) and the usual parameters of the dilatancy, Ψ and β max , and also with
new measurable parameters, such as ( e OC - e pp ) or Φ peak :
[ β max = ( d ε v /d ε 1 ) max and sin ψ = tg β max /(2+ tg β max ) ]
Figure 5.10a gives the ( I D - log p' ) plane graduated with parallel straight lines
having the same Φ peak values, Ψ, and e NC - e OC . Favre [MEK 02] graduated it with
OCR. In Figure 5.10b, I C - log p' gives the graduation with OCR for the clays
around wL = 70%. The gap between ISL and CSL is 0.25 on I d and 0.09 on I C for
these clays.
