Abstract
In this study, samples of agricultural food lightweight soil were made to do the laboratory test to obtain the shearing strength parameters. Based on the triaxial compression test, the relation between stress and strain and the shearing strength parameters of the agricultural light-weight soil were studied. It shows that the relationship between the stress and strain of agricultural food lightweight soil has the features of nonlinear and hardening. The shearing strength parameters of this material were obtained in this study, besides, it is found that the cohesive force increases but the trend for the increment of internal friction angle is not obvious with the increment of cement content.
Keywords:
