Figure 11.
The graph displays the relationship between unconfined compressive strength, measured in kilonewtons per square metre, and strain, represented as percent. The X-axis indicates strain ranging from 0 to approximately 1.7 percent, while the Y-axis shows strength values from 0 to 220 kilonewtons per square metre. There are multiple curves representing different cement content, 1 percent, 2 percent, and 3 percent, measured at intervals of 14 days and 21 days, with distinct markers for each dataset. The lines are labelled to indicate the corresponding cement content and time of measurement, depicting how compressive strength varies with both factors across the strain range.The stress–strain curves of lightly cemented kaolin with different cement content and curing times at 2.0wL for horizontally cut specimens
