Experimental Investigations on Hydro-mechanical Processes in Reconstituted Clay Shale and Their Significance for Constitutive Modelling

Antonia Nitsch et al.

Summary: This study investigates the hydro-mechanical processes of a reconstituted clay shale and discusses their implications for constitutive modeling. Various tests, including oedometric swelling tests, oedometric compression tests, and permeability tests, were conducted to gain further insights into the coupled processes. The experimental findings reveal the influence of saturation on the mechanical properties and demonstrate a severe reduction of preloading stress due to saturation, as well as a significant reduction in un-/reloading stiffness and permeability in the saturated state. These findings are used to derive fundamental assumptions for constitutive modeling and discussed within a numerical framework for expansive soils.

Benchmark study of undrained triaxial testing of Opalinus Clay shale: Results and implications for robust testing

Alberto Minardi et al.

Summary: The triaxial testing of argillaceous rocks and shales presents significant challenges due to their low permeability, sensitivity to environment, and lack of international standards. A benchmark study involving three leading service laboratories demonstrated good reproducibility of effective stress paths under similar initial conditions. Testing on Opalinus Clay shale showed that robust triaxial testing results can be achieved for shales when key challenges are addressed.
