Abstract

The paper presents the concept, design and construction of new ring shear apparatus, ICL-1. The new apparatus is, compared to previous ones (DPRI-5, 6, 7), much smaller in dimensions and has higher performances. It can keep undrained condition up to 1 MPa of pore water pressure (up to two times more than in previous versions of apparatus) and load normal stress up to 1 MPa. This makes it suitable for investigation of large- scale and deep seated landslides. Speed control test and undrained cyclic loading tests were performed to show experimental procedures in details. Typical test results are presented to show the efficiency of this ring shear apparatus.
