Initial value of e
The initial void ratio in the simulation of the shear test must
correspond to the adopted position of NCL so that the implied
OCR is correct.
If e from compression and shear tests (for the same state) is
different due to the experimental scatter, use e from the
compression test.
Alternatively, it is possible to directly initialise OCR.

Structure:
Fabric – arrangement of particles. Predominantly created during
soil sedimentation. Influenced greatly by the chemistry of
sedimentation environment.
Bonding – cementation bonds between individual particles. Formed
by precipitation of bonding chemicals during subsequent
diagenetical processes.
