· The unconfined compressive test results are classified into four types based on previous experimental results. For clayey sand (SC) soil, normal stress is 1.693 kg/cm 2, shear stress is 0.847 kg/cm 2, and internal angle of friction (α) is 57 ; hence, the sensitivity of the soil indicates slightly soft due to presence of fines (> 12%).
