Abstract
The bearing capacity of unsaturated soils is commonly estimated using the conventional shear-strength parameters determined from drained loading conditions regardless of soil type and drainage condition. However, the use of drained shear-strength parameters to interpret the bearing capacity of unsaturated fine-grained soils is not reliable because there are uncertainties with respect to the drainage conditions of both the pore-air and pore-water pressures. In the current study, a series of model footing tests is conducted in statically compacted unsaturated fine-grained soils. The model footing test results are interpreted using the modified effective-stress and total stress approaches considering the influence of matric suction. In addition, the validity of the modified total stress approach is tested using in situ plate-load test results in unsaturated fine-grained soils. The advantages, disadvantages, and limitations of using the modified effective-stress and modified total-stress approaches for engineering practice applications are discussed in this paper.

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
