Mechanical Behavior of Weathered Compacted Shales

Compacted crushed shale is widely utilized as a construction material in roadway embankments. However, compacted shales are highly problematic as they tend to degrade with time once being subjected to cyclic weathering events. With degradation, shale converts from a hard rock-like material to a soft fine-grained soil mass with lower …
