Article Synopsis
- Soil structure and overconsolidation both significantly influence soil strength, but their combined effects can counteract each other and reduce overall benefits.
- Experimental tests on loess, including undisturbed and remolded samples, showed that while both factors enhance strength, their interaction can weaken some of their individual effects.
- An empirical relationship was developed to quantify the combined impact of soil structure and overconsolidation on soil strength, with strong alignment between theoretical calculations and experimental findings.
