It is not always possible to conduct the bearing capacity test in the field. Some times it is cheaper to take the undisturbed soil sample and test its strength in the laboratory. Also to choose the best material for the embankment, one has to conduct strength tests on the samples selected. Under these conditions it is easy to perform the unconfined compression test on undisturbed and remoulded soil sample. Now we will investigate experimentally the strength of a given soil sample.
