Abstract
The Shear Strength of Tidal Marsh Sediments: NOTES
Raymond Pestrong
ABSTRACT
The shear strength of soft, cohesive muds may be rapidly and accurately calculated from laboratory investigations with an unconfined compressive strength testing device that is inexpensive and simple to construct. Utilizing this device, the shear strength of "undisturbed" cores of tidal flat and tidal marsh sediments from the San Francisco Bay was measured, with the highest values consistently associated with the organically rich, denser, marsh deposits.
