Mechanical characterization of a gravel column in a calibration chamber operating as a triaxial cell

Abstract

A series of tests considering the behavior of gravel columns was performed. A segment of column with a height of 1 m and a diameter of 0.53 m was modelled in a calibration chamber used as a triaxial cell at three different lateral stress applied. The vertical load transferred on the column head was simulated with steady increase of water pressures in the upper and lower membranes. During the loading the volumetric changes in the column material were measured. The influence of lateral membrane rigidity and the effect of encapsulated column were analyzed. The strength and deformation parameters of gravel material determined in the calibration chamber operating as a triaxial cell are discussed.
