Abstract
Results from National Bureau of Standards (NBS) resonant column tests to determine shear moduli and damping ratios for Monterey No. 0 sand are presented to supplement the ASTM resonant column round robin program. In addition to testing solid specimen as specified for the initial ASTM round robin program, hollow cylindrical specimens were tested to provide an independent check on the validity of the results.
