AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies make it difficult to accurately measure the in-situ density of deep sand, resulting in lower measured values and affecting the safety and stability of engineering projects.
Large-diameter borehole sampling combined with freezing method was used to prepare soil samples. The volumetric deformation parameters of the soil samples were monitored by triaxial creep test. Based on the stable volumetric deformation parameters, the in-situ density and porosity were derived to simulate the in-situ structure and stress state of the soil samples.
It improves the accuracy of in-situ density measurement of deep sand, ensures the safety and economy of engineering design, and reduces engineering costs.
