University of Texas at Arlington Geotechnical Engineering Laboratory Unconfined Compressive Strength Test Lecture Notes # 9 Definitions, Objectives and Applications Objective To determine the Unconfined Compressive Strength (qu) of the soil Significance A quick test to obtain the shear Strength parameters of cohesive (fine grained) soils either in undisturbed or remolded state The test is not applicable to cohesionless or coarse grained soils The test is strain controlled and when the soil sample is loaded rapidly, the pore pressures (water within the soil) undergo changes that do not have enough time to dissipate Hence the test is representative of soils in construction sites where the rate of construction is very fast and the pore waters do not have enoug
