For the present investigation the undisturbed samples were taken from 4-.0 m to 6.5 m. below the existing ground surface at a site at the Asian Institute of Technology.  Results of the present investigation revealed that the Laboratory vane shear test gave the highest undrained shear strength to be followed by shear box test. Among the consolidated undrained tests, CIU compression tests yielded the highest strength to be followed in order by CAU(c), and CAU(E), tests. 0aShear strength of soilsxTesting1 aHolmberg, Soren, eChairperson1 aBrand, E.W., eExamination Committee1 aAkagi, Toshinobu, eExamination Committee2 aGovernment of United Kingdom, eScholarship Donor2 aAsian Institute of Technology.tThesis ;vno. 1294  3Full-Textuhttp://203.159.5.9/ait-thesis/detail.php?q=B22900
