Résumé : |
In order to investigate the influence of water on compression characteristics of decomposed granite soils, single-particle crushing and one-dimensional compression tests were carried out on three types of decomposed granite soils as well as on quartz-rich silica sand under both dry and wet conditions. Results showed that the initial crushing strength of a single particle was reduced and strength variability increased due to the weakening effects induced by the presence of water. Moreover, it was observed that the one-dimensional compression behavior of decomposed granite soil was related to the initial crushing strength. Finally, the magnitude of initial crushing strength was also affected by the degree of weathering of the soil.
