Abstract: The stress-strain curves of two kinds of reinforced expansive soil with different water contents around optimal value are obtained by triaxial shear test on reinforced soils. The strength of the sample with the same water contents gets stronger with the increase of reinforced layers and confinement pressure; the strength of the sample under the same confinement pressure and reinforced layers increases obviously by reducing slightly its water contents; and the result that the strength of reinforced expansive soil is sensitive to water contents is gained by analyzing the test curves.

Key words: triaxial test, reinforced expensive soils, water contents
