Option (d), when vibration or shaking separates the water-coated particles, quick clay can flow like a liquid.
<h3>What does that imply, quick clay?</h3>
The term "quick clay" refers to a special form of clay that, when overloaded, totally collapses and flows like a liquid. Additionally, quick clay can be found in Finland, Russia, Canada, Alaska, although it is most prevalent in Norway and Sweden.
In Norway, fast clay (as well as other types of sensitive clay) forms where clay was first deposited in a salty marine environment and was later lifted near or above sea level as a result of post-glacial uplift. Groundwater movement has gradually carried the electrically charged particles that were present in the pore water of the sediment away.
<h3>How can you recognize fast clay?</h3>
The definition of a quick clay is a clay where the soil's undisturbed shear strength is at least 30 times larger than the soil's remolded (or disturbed) shear strength. Sensitivity is defined as the ratio of strength that is not disturbed to that that is.
