Abstract:
Evidence gained from previous field tests conducted on drilled shaft foundation shows that using drilling slurries to stabilize a borehole during the construction may influence the interfacial shear strength.This paper deals with an exhaustive study of the effects of drilling slurries at the contact between soil and concrete.This study involved adapting a simple shear apparatus and performing approximately 100 experimental tests on the interaction between two types of soils;clay and sandy clay and five spec...
