Three triaxial tests were conducted on clay shale specimens from Laneport Dam. The specimens were 3 in. long by 1.4 in. in diameter. The purpose of the test program was to evaluate the influence of temperature variation on pore pressure in clay shale, and stress-strain and pore pressure behavior due to incremental isotropic and axial and lateral stress changes. The results of this experimental program are given in this report.
