    Triaxial Compression Test: Geotechnical Engineering Laboratory Test

    Uploaded by

    eteure
    1. A triaxial compression test was conducted on a soil sample obtained from a borrow pit for the Irrua Project to determine its engineering properties. 2. The test measured the stress, strain, and shear strength of the sample under different confining pressures. It found the friction angle was 33.02 degrees and cohesion was 30 kN/m^2. 3. A graph of shear stress versus normal stress showed the sample's shear strength followed a linear failure envelope described by the equation τ = 0.65σ + 30, which characterizes the engineering behavior of the soil.
