Comparison of the Loading Methods for Fracture of Plastic Soils
A detailed investigation of six basic loading methods, i e, tension, torsion, bending, direct shear, cutting, relieved cutting, using a modified triaxial apparatus, has been undertaken. The results show that loading plastic soils in bending is an effective method of causing soil fracture with minimum force and energy requirement.
