Identification of the behavior of the Chlef sand to static liquefaction
[Sur le comportement du sable de Chlef et sa résistance à la liquéfaction]
Comptes Rendus. Mécanique, Volume 337 (2009) no. 5, pp. 282-290.

Une étude expérimentale, réalisée en laboratoire à l'appareil triaxial, se propose d'évaluer l'influence du mode de déposition des sols, aussi celle de la densité initiale et du confinement, sur le comportement non drainé du sable de Chlef. Les essais ont été effectués sur des échantillons collectés in situ de densité relative initiale de 29 et 80% (correspondant à des profondeurs de 10 m et 20 m respectivement), à des pressions de confinement initiales de 50, 100 et 200 kPa selon deux méthodes de reconstitution : la pluviation à sec et le placement humide avec une teneur en eau de 3%. Tous les échantillons ont été soumis à un chargement monotone après consolidation. Les résultats expérimentaux montrent que le confinement et la densité relative affectent d'une manière très significative la résistance à la liquéfaction du sol. En effet cette dernière augmente avec la pression de confinement et la densité. Les résultats montrent aussi que les échantillons préparés avec la méthode de pluviation à sec présentent une résistance à la liquéfaction plus élevée que ceux préparés avec la méthode du placement humide, en mobilisant un effort résiduel plus grand.

An experimental study, realized in laboratory with the triaxial apparatus, proposes to evaluate the influence of the mode of soil deposition, initial density and confinement on the undrained behavior of the Chlef sand. The tests were conducted on specimens collected in situ of initial relative density of 29 and 80% (corresponding to depths of 10 m and 20 m, respectively), with initial confining pressure of 50, 100 and 200 kPa using two depositional methods that include dry funnel pluviation (DFP) and wet deposition (WD) with water content of 3%. All the samples were subjected to a monotonic loading after the consolidation phase. The test results show that the initial confining pressure and the relative density affect considerably the resistance to liquefaction. However, it increases with the confinement and the density. The results also show that the samples prepared with the dry funnel pluviation method have a greater resistance to liquefaction than those prepared with the wet deposition method, by mobilizing higher residual strength.
