Abstract

This presentation is divided into two sections. First, an example showing the influence of the principal stresses on the strength and deformation characteristics of a soil is discussed. Secondly, an overview of a unique HCA currently being commissioned in the Department of Civil Engineering, University College Dublin (UCD) is presented.
