Table 2.

Details of samples used in this study, including sample reference, material type, sample name, test conditions, dimensions, and some basic geotechnical properties. Values in parentheses represent theoretic grain densities based on the % mineral fractions. # represents data calculated from an assumed grain density of 2.69 mg.m−3. ## represent values derived from a subfraction of the test sample. * indicates values obtained from duplicate samples where data from the original test was unavailable. Tests BC4 and ES1 were consolidated within the test apparatus from their initial in situ values to the target stress/pore water pressure used in this study
