The direct shear test is widely used in China. Besides the soil samples’characteristics impact, the direct shear test is also greatly related to the parameter conditions. This paper studies the quick shear indicators of saturated silty clay with low plasticity from Caofeidian in Hebei province. Based on the statistical analysis of test indicators obtained by different test methods, we know the impact of the shear rate in the quick shear indicators and suggest the higher shear rate (2.4 mm/min) on saturated silty clay with low plasticity quick shear test.
