摘要：
The engineering properties of an expansive soil were investigated using in situ and compacted samples. The soil water characteristic curve was found to have a bimodal shape composing of two air entry values: an initial low value corresponding to microporous drainage followed by a high value related to microporous flow. Likewise. the shrinkage curve was found to be S-shaped and included a low structural shrinkage followed by a sharp decline during normal shrinkage and then by a low decrease during residual shrinkage.
