4、lly non-horizontal shearsurface in the ring shear apparatus is difficult.As a result,thistest method focuses on the use of a reconstituted specimen tomeasure the residual strength.This test method is performed bydeforming a presheared,reconstituted specimen at a controlleddisplacement rate until the
5、 constant drained shear resistance isoffered on a single shear plane determined by the configurationof the apparatus.An unlimited amount of continuous sheardisplacement can be achieved to obtain a residual strengthcondition.Generally,three or more normal stresses are appliedto a test specimen to det
