Abstract

The study is about the general genesis process of overconsolidated soils, as well as the effects of the overconsolidated ratio to structures. It will demonstrate the possible methods for the determination of the values of overconsolidated ratio and of earth pressure at rest; further, the processing of measurement results, through which the values of OCR (Overconsolidated ratio) and of λ0 (Earth pressure at rest) in the Kiscelli Clay Marl have been determined.
