Experimental test results presented in this paper were from a series of triaxial compression tests studied under drained conditions for Completely Decomposed Granite (CDG) soil mixed with fine sand content of (0, 10, 20, 30, and 40%). The CDG soil showed high compressibility during isotropic consoli...
