What is Strain Rate Impact on Bentonite-Sand UCS about?
The document investigates the effect of strain rate on the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of compacted bentonite and sand mixes. Three strain rates were tested: 2 mm/min, 1.75 mm/min, and 1.5 mm/min. Results showed that the UCS of all mixes increased with increasing strain rate. The highest increase in UCS was observed for a 40% bentonite, 60% sand mix. For all strain rates, UCS increased up to a 30% bentonite content then decreased with further increases in bentonite. Therefore, a 30% bentonite, 70%
