Sensitivity

  1. The breakfast bond between solid molecules of soil
  2. Permanent loss : Suppose, $q_u=100$, $q_v=20$
    $S_t=\frac{100}{20}=5$
    Loss of compress strength recorded = $100-20=80%$
  3. Due to the re-orientation of water molecules present in the absorbed layer of soil.
  4. Temporary loss
  5. Completely recover with time.enter image description here Thixotropy:
    Over a period of time …
