Abstract:

In order to investigate the influence of surface roughness of structure on cyclic shear behavior of soilstructure interface,a series of large scale cyclic direct shear tests were performed for red clay-concrete interface.
The effect of roughness of concrete surface and normal stress were investigated on cyclic shear behavior of clay-con
crete interface. The results indicate that the phenomena of cyclic shear softening is significant on red clay-concrete interface due to cyclic loading,and that the shear strength of interface increases with the roughness being incremented; An obvious contraction of interface was observed during the process of cyclic shear under different conditions,
and the maximum value of contraction increases with the increment of roughness. Shear stiffness and damping ratio
of interface decrease with rising number of cycles and tend to a steady value at the end of cyclic tests. The increase of roughness can improve shear stiffness of interface,but produces little influence on damping ratio of interface. 

Key words: interface, roughness, cyclic shear, shear stiffness, damping ratio, concrete, red clay
