typical vane shear test results

[msk1529]

i need some typical results of vane shear test for different kind of soils.any help will be appreciated.

The vane shear test is only really suitable for use on clays to determine the undrained strength of the saturated clay.
A good reference for varying types of clays and their undrained shear strengths is Correlations of Soil Properties, Carter and Bentley, Section 6, Tables 6.1 and 6.2.
Hope this helps.
