What is Soil Stiffness Measurement Techniques about?

This document describes a technique for accurately measuring the mean local axial strains of triaxial samples over a central gauge length, using an axial displacement gauge developed by Burland & Symes (1982). Undrained triaxial test results are presented for a variety of soil types, from sands to intact chalk, showing that conventional external displacement measurements contain large errors, invalidating their use to determine soil stiffness at working stress levels. The errors mainly result from sample ti
