It is calculated as CI = (LL-W)/(LL-PL), where W is the existing water content. I think it's important that this research exists, but for practical correlation to actual friction angle on a project (or to justify a lab value, I'm not sure, there's much value. It is well known that the resulting intercept depends on the range of stresses considered: it is not a fundamental soil property.

The amount of expansion is related to the ability of the soil to take in water and its structural make-up (the type of minerals present: clay, silt, or sand). An example of this is rapid loading of sands during an earthquake, or the failure of a clay slope during heavy rain, and applies to most failures that occur during construction. The indirect tensile strength is calculated as follows (Fairhurst (1964)): \[\ \sigma_{\mathrm{T}}=\frac{2 \cdot \mathrm{F}}{\pi \cdot \mathrm{L} \cdot \mathrm{D}}\tag{2-30}\].

The reported values of effective friction angle (), based on SPT N60 values, should be reduced by 5 for clayey sands and should be increased by 5 for gravelly sands. The soils consisted of monomineralic soils, some natural soils and the goose lake flour - a commercial standard soil used in research at Soil Mechanics Laboratory of University of Illinois. Unconfined Compressive Strength, UCS, can be determined in the laboratory using the Triaxial Test or the Unconfined Compressive Strength Test. As Big H hints at, with clays, the variability in the actual value of phi' is minor compared to making sure the right strength "paradigm" is being considered. However, the transition from plastic to liquid behavior is gradual over a range of water contents, and the shear strength of the soil is not actually zero at the liquid limit.

seems more reasonable to use atterbergs along with gradations to check that you're on a similar material as that which you've already assigned a phi to after a round of initial lab tests. The theoretical state at which the shear stress and density remain constant while the shear strain increases may be called the critical state, steady state, or residual strength. Better for some plants worse for others. Give one more correlation(Mitchell 1976) from critical state soil mechanics' point of view, as follows: Well guys this is for a cut slope which has already failed, and we are just looking at the soil properties to see what they are as no prior testing was done. In recent work, he has collaborated with neutron research scientists to apply non-conventional methods, such as small- and ultra-small-angle neutron scattering (SANS/USANS) techniques, to rigorously characterize the pore structure of UG/ULO reservoirs and to determine open versus closed porosity, which are important parameters for quantifying .
