A direct shear test is conducted on a large specimen of dry sand (square cross section with following dimensions: 7.5 cm x 7.5 cm x 3.0 cm [height], Mass = 271.0 g) with a normal stress of 500 kPa. Failure occurred when the horizontal force was 1.96 kN. For the same sand, tests were also conducted to determine the specific gravity and the maximum and minimum void ratios. These tests yielded the following results: Gs= 2.65, emax=0.80, emin = 0.45....
