| Description | The behaviour of natural sedimentary clay is different from the comparative behaviour of a reconstituted sample due primarily to in-situ ageing. In this paper, the metastability of Holocene clays from six nations was examined by performing a series of undrained triaxial tests on each pair of natural and reconstituted samples. The undrained shear strength $c_{u}$ of the source ground was obtained by shearing each natural sample subjected to anisotropic consolidation with in-situ effective overburden pressure. The $c_{u}$ value of the natural samples reflecting ageing effects was examined with respect to the metastability index, MI(G), proposed by Shibuya (2000). A method for distinguishing the primary source of clay ageing; i.e., secondary compression or interparticle bonding, is also proposed.
