Direct shear tests pada pasir
Hal penting menggenai parameter kuat geser c and f pada pasir
Pasir = tanah non-kohesi,
maka c = 0
Percobaan Direct shear adalah drained dan tekanan air pori terdissipasi, maka u = 0

Normally consolidated clay (c’ = 0) In case of clay, horizontal displacement should be applied at a very slow rate to allow dissipation of pore water pressure (therefore, one test would take several days to finish)
Interface tests on direct shear apparatus
In many foundation design problems and retaining wall problems, it is required to determine the angle of internal friction between soil and the structural material (concrete, steel or wood)

Kelebihan percobaan direct shear
Drainase yang cepat dapat diperoleh, karena ketebalan sampel
percobaan yang kecil.
Dapat digunakan untuk menggetahui parameter kuat geser pada
pertemuan tanah.
Kekurangan percobaan direct shear
Arah bidang keruntuhan sudah diketahui. Luas permukaan sliding berubah seiring dengan berjalannya
proses percobaan.
Ketidak seragaman distribusi kuat geser sepanjang bidang

Standard Penetration Test,
SPT
SPT is the most widely used test procedure to determine
the properties of in-situ soils
63.5 kg 0.76 m Drill rod 0.15 m 0.15 m 0.15 m Number of blows = N1 Number of blows = N2 Number of blows = N3
Standard penetration resistance (SPT N) = N2 + N3
Number of blows for the first 150 mm penetration is disregarded due to the disturbance likely to exist at the bottom of the drill hole
The test can be conducted at every 1m vertical intervals
