Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of geotechnical testing equipment, and in particular to a tensile strength testing device and an implementation method for overconsolidated clay. Background Art
[0002] As an engineering material, the tensile strength of clay is an important indicator for evaluating its performance. Although the tensile strength of clay is relatively low, in many engineering applications, such as foundation engineering and earth-rock dam construction, the tensile properties of clay need to be fully considered to ensure the stability and safety of the project. When the tensile strength of clay is insufficient, the soil is prone to cracking under the action of tension, and even causes the collapse of the overall structure. This is more common in engineering problems such as earth-rock dams, embankments and slopes, and may cause serious safety accidents. Due to the cracks that are easy to appear in the soil after being tensile, the strength of the soil layer is reduced. At the same time, the tension cracks can also provide channels for rainwater infiltration. The engineering problems caused by this are endless, and there is an urgent need to study the tensile strength of soil in engineering. In-depth discussion of the tensile strength characteristics of soil not only helps to improve the strength theory of soil, but also has important significance for solving practical engineering problems.
[0003] Since the tensile strength value of soil is small and difficult to measure, there is no unified instrument and test specification for measuring the tensile strength of soil at this stage, and homemade instruments are mostly used for testing. Patent 202310045762.2 discloses an integrated device for uniaxial tension and sample preparation of clay soil and its use method, which solves the problem of difficult sample preparation of clay soil. Patent 202211183917.0 has developed a horizontal uniaxial tension test device for a mixture of variable-size gravel and clay. However, the current soil tensile strength test device rarely considers the influence of the consolidation process of clay soil on the tensile strength. In fact, the mechanical properties of clay soil are closely related to the consolidation history. For example, as the initial consolidation pressure of clay increases, the shear strength also increases to a certain extent. It can be seen that the strength parameters of clay depend on the consolidation history of the soil. In actual engineering, such as earth-rock dams, artificial slopes and roadbed filling, the soil is often in an over-consolidated state. It is necessary to reflect the influence of the initial consolidation process on the tensile strength of clay in the tensile strength test device. In addition, in the test of soil tensile strength, the position of the soil sample chamber is often fixed during the stretching process, which may cause the soil sample to be stretched unevenly, thus affecting the test results of tensile strength. In addition, the stretching of the soil sample is affected by the aspect ratio of the sample, but existing equipment rarely considers the influence of the shape of the soil sample on its tensile strength.

Fill the soil layer in the soil sample loading chamber and obtain an initial porosity ratio of The soil sample is placed in contact with the transparent panel; the pressure sensor is reset to zero; B4: Set the maximum compressive stress value , gradually extend the first hydraulic rod, and the increment of compressive stress at each stage is 50 kPa, and the maximum pressure load applied to the first hydraulic rod is calculated. And each level of incremental load ; ; ; in, is the soil sample thickness, is the width of the soil sample in the tensile section; Under each level of pressure load, continue until the displacement is stable, record the displacement of the pressure plate under each level of pressure load, and calculate the compressive stress of the soil sample under any level of pressure , compressive strain and porosity ratio ; ; ; ; in, is the pressure load of a single first hydraulic rod under the j-th level pressure load; is the cross-sectional area of the soil sample of the straight segment under the j-th level pressure load; is the volume of the straight segment soil sample under the j-th level pressure load; is the volume of the arc-shaped soil sample under the j-th level pressure load; is the volume of the tensile section of the soil sample under the jth level of pressure load; after reaching the designed maximum pressure load, the first hydraulic rod stops extending; and are the displacement distances of the two pressure plates under the j-th level of pressure load; B5: Draw the logarithm of the compressive stress-porosity ratio curve of the soil sample during the loading process. The sudden turning point in the logarithm of the compressive stress-porosity ratio curve is the initial consolidation pressure of the soil sample. At the same time, the consolidation pressure of the soil sample at the maximum pressure load is obtained to complete the consolidation test method.
10. A soil sample stress test method for a tensile strength test device for overconsolidated clay, characterized in that: The soil sample is consolidated to the designed porosity ratio by the consolidation test method described in claim 9 to obtain a consolidated soil sample; and the consolidated soil sample is then subjected to a tensile strength test by the tensile test method described in claim 8.
