Multi-stage triaxial compression tests were performed on undisturbed samples of residual soils from Bukit Timah Granite formation in Singapore. Tests were carried out under two conditions, namely, consolidated undrained test (CU) (i.e. both pore-air and pore-water pressure were not allowed to drain...
