Time-dependency of mechanical properties of conditioned non-cohesive soils

keywords MECHANICAL CHARACTERIZATION, TESTING, TUNNELS

Reference persons DANIELE PEILA

Thesis type EXPERIMENTAL

Description The EPB-TBM tunnelling process is possible only through the conditioning of soils. This operation produces a material with properties very different from the original ones. The object of this thesis is to study the time-dependency of the conditioning decay and the recovery of the original mechanical properties through laboratory tests.
