Abstract
This paper describes a field and laboratory testing program conducted on the relatively weak, low plastic, fine-grained soils within a dam foundation. Standard Penetration Tests (SPTs) with energy measurements and Nilcon vane shear tests were conducted in situ and consolidation, triaxial and constant volume direct simple shear tests (DSS) were conducted on intact soil samples extracted from the low plastic fine grained soil layers. The DSS tests included cyclic and post-cyclic monotonic tests with and without initial static bias. The seismic behaviour of the low plastic fine grained soil layers were characterized based on their plasticity index, over consolidation ratio, SPT resistance, vane shear strengths and cyclic and post-cyclic resistance from the DSS tests, with emphasis on the results from the DSS tests. The paper presents results from the field and laboratory testing focusing on the results from cyclic and post-cyclic DSS tests.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
