Abstract
In the study, the small-strain shear modulus of three different soils from a tailing dam from China was studied incorporating lateral and vertical bender element inserts in a stress path triaxial apparatus. This allowed the study of the fabric anisotropy of the samples measuring different components of shear modulus. The study reports on the small-strain behavior of the tailing soils discussing sample preparation method effects as well as comparing the response of the samples with respect to literature expressions developed from tests on quartz type sands.
