A clay that loses nearly all of its shear strength after being disturbed is called a(n)?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

A clay that loses nearly all of its shear strength after being disturbed is called a(n) sensitive clay.

Clay is a material similar to natural earth but fine grain. The meaning of the word clay is "sticky". The slip is a clay in liquid suspension used as a binding agent, as enamel for stoneware and electrical insulators or slip sheets are used in decoration.Clays may be described as sensitive when the undisturbed strength is greater than the disturbed (remoulded) strength, where the remoulded material can behave as a fluid.

Sensitivity is defined as the ratio of the undisturbed shear strength and the disturbed shear strength.Clay soil has a thick and swooping composition. Blackland prairies have a unique characteristic of black and heavy clay soils because of the marine chalks, limestones, and shale that are found in its composition. When soils reach major rivers and tributaries its compositions changes into a more sandy soil
