ABSTRACT: The paper describes the variation of the horizontal and vertical effective stress ratio (k0) determined with the aid of a piezo-cell installed for such purpose in the soft clay subsoil of a site, after passing of a pressurized shield.
RÉSUMÉ: L´article décrit la variation des contraintes effectives horizontales et verticales (k0), déterminées au moyen d´un piezo-cellule installé pour ce but, dans le mou sous-sol d´un endroit par lequel a traversé un écu de pression.
