Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of rock and soil mechanics strength testing, in particular to a gravel soil direct shear instrument with controllable humidity environment. Background Art
[0002] Landslides are highly likely to occur in mountainous areas due to complex lithology, geological structures, and terrain variations, as well as factors such as human intervention and rainfall. Gravel-soil landslides, one of the many types of landslides, are a major geological hazard, causing significant economic losses to the country. Research on the properties of gravel-soil plays a crucial role in preventing and controlling these landslides.
[0003] Gravel soil is characterized by a loose structure, high porosity, and high permeability. Natural climates vary greatly, and under typical climatic conditions, gravel soil is in an unsaturated state. Gravel soil's strength is significantly affected by ambient humidity. During rainfall, air humidity is high, soil suction is low, and strength decreases accordingly. At high temperatures, water evaporates, air humidity decreases, suction increases, and strength increases. The effects of humidity and repeated wet-dry cycles ultimately affect slope stability. Slope instability is largely caused by shear failure, making accurate measurement of shear strength of great engineering significance. Direct shear apparatuses are widely used due to their simplicity and wide applicability. Most direct shear apparatuses on the market are designed for fine-grained soils, with few suitable for gravel soils. While large direct shear apparatuses exist for shearing gravel soil, they cannot control humidity during testing, clearly not meeting our testing conditions. To study the effects of humidity or varying suction on the strength of gravel soil, it was necessary to develop a direct shear apparatus for gravel soil that could control humidity.

[0052] When using the gravel soil direct shear apparatus with controllable humidity environment provided by the present invention, the operating steps are as follows:
[0053] 1. Sample Preparation: Insert the rigid plates of the sample preparation box into the slots of the base 2 and secure the rigid plates 28 of the sample preparation box with bolts 33. Based on the test objectives, place a certain amount of test gravel soil into the sample preparation box. Turn on the sample preparation hydraulic pump jack 30 to apply pressure to the gravel soil to prepare the sample. After the sample is pressed, disassemble the rigid plates 28 of the sample preparation box and remove the sample.
[0054] 2. Sample installation: Adjust the upper shear box 18 and the lower shear box 17, put the sample into the space formed by the upper shear box 18 and the lower shear box 17, then turn on the electric propeller 13, let the retractable rigid plate 23 and the non-retractable rigid plate 22 be in close contact with the sample, when the system senses that the retractable rigid plate 23 and the non-retractable rigid plate 22 are in close contact with the sample through the pressure sensing electrode 25, stop applying pressure, install the top cover of the sealing box 10, and ensure the airtightness of the sealing box 10.
[0055] 3. Control humidity: Open the relative humidity controller 1, and deliver the generated moisture from the air inlet pipe 4 into the sealed box 10.

When the humidity sensor 11 senses that the target humidity in the sealed box 10 has been reached, close the air inlet pipe 4 and the exhaust port 12, and at the same time, close the relative humidity controller 1.
[0056] 4. Apply consolidation pressure: When the sample is dehumidified, check whether the retractable rigid plate 23 and the non-retractable rigid plate 22 are in contact with the sample. If not, apply force to make the retractable rigid plate 23 and the non-retractable rigid plate 22 contact the sample; open the vertical hydraulic pump jack 7 to apply consolidation pressure until the predetermined consolidation pressure is loaded.

The loading rate can be controlled to achieve fast shear and slow shear. The horizontal stress and displacement sensor 21 displays the shear stress and displacement in real time.
[0058] 6. Data acquisition and processing: Obtain shear stress and displacement data on the horizontal stress and displacement sensor. Draw a shear stress-shear displacement relationship curve with shear stress as the ordinate and shear displacement as the abscissa. Select the peak point or stable value on the relationship curve as the shear strength. Draw a relationship curve with shear strength as the ordinate and vertical pressure as the abscissa. Draw a curve based on each point on the graph to obtain the internal friction angle and cohesion.
[0059] Working principle of the gravel soil direct shear apparatus with controlled humidity environment:
[0060] A sealed box 10 capable of retaining moisture is set up, a humidity sensor 11 and an external relative humidity controller 1 are installed in the sealed box 10, and after the sample is installed in the space formed by the upper shear box 18 and the lower shear box 17, the sealed box 10 is sealed; the relative humidity controller 1 is turned on, and the valve 3 is opened to deliver humid air. When the humidity sensor 11 measures that the humidity in the sealed box 10 reaches the target humidity, the valve 3 is closed; a shear test is performed on the sample after applying vertical pressure; during the shear test, the shear rate is controlled by using a gearbox according to different requirements. Generally, four different vertical pressures are used in each group, and the horizontal stress and strain curve and c and φ strength indicators of the sample can be obtained.
