The dynamic behaviour of some cohesive soils of southwestern Ontario is experimentally investigated using a resonant column apparatus. Attention is concentrated particularly on the dynamic shear modulus, Young's modulus, and damping ratio. The variation of these characteristics with void ratio, confining pressure, strain, and stress history is studied. Data are presented that can be utilized in the design of foundations and structures exposed to dynamic loads.
