Advanced Soil Mechanics – Critical State Mechanics (MCC Model) for CD Triaxial Test

[GEO-2025-0139] – By Dr. Ahmad Fahmi

We are excited to introduce the Critical State Mechanics spreadsheet pack based on the Modified Cam Clay (MCC) Model for the CD Triaxial Test. This advanced set of 7 professional spreadsheets developed by GEOtExcel Co. is designed for soil mechanics professionals, students, and geotechnical engineers to classify soils into Normally Consolidated (NC), Lightly Over-consolidated (LOC), and Highly Over-consolidated (HOC) clays.

This tool is essential for understanding critical state mechanics, enabling accurate modeling of soil behavior under compression and tension conditions. It’s a vital resource for professionals involved in geotechnical engineering projects, foundation design, and soil testing.

What’s Included in the 7 Spreadsheets?

  1. Start: Start Sheet – Overview and setup for the MCC model and CD triaxial test calculations.
  2. MCC-CD: Main Super Sheet – Critical State Mechanics using the MCC model for CD triaxial test.
  3. Cal1 to Cal5: Calculation Sheets – Various sheets to calculate and analyze data for NC, LOC, and HOC clay classifications.

Applications in Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering:

  • Critical State Mechanics: Implement MCC model for modeling soil behavior and failure states under compression and tension.
  • Soil Classification: Classify soils into Normally Consolidated (NC), Lightly Over-consolidated (LOC), and Highly Over-consolidated (HOC) using MCC and triaxial test data.
  • Triaxial Test Analysis: Conduct comprehensive analysis of CD triaxial tests, including effective stress and critical state conditions.
  • Soil Behavior Simulation: Essential for simulating soil behavior in geotechnical and foundation engineering applications.
  • Practical Tool: Ideal for soil testing labs, foundation design, and geotechnical engineers working with clay soils.
  • Educational Use: Useful in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering courses focusing on critical state soil mechanics and advanced triaxial testing.
