Understanding the shearing behavior at soil-structure interfaces is crucial for the analysis and design of geotechnical structures. When significant relative displacements between soil and interface are involved during installation or operation, the ring shear interface testing method, which includes large pre-shearing, is considered reliable for assessing interface resistance. These tests are commonly applied in practical design approaches for driven piles. This research aimed to expand the unified database created by Imperial College London (ICL) and Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI) by incorporating soil test data collected for North Sea sands with varying grain size distributions.

This research aimed to expand the unified database created by Imperial College London (ICL) and Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI) by incorporating soil test data collected by Geo for North Sea sands with varying grain size distributions. We present an extended database that encompasses soil classification tests and Ring Shear (RS) tests conducted on soil-steel interfaces using Advanced Ring Shear apparatus (Bishop-apparatus-like). This paper introduces a database of interface shearing tests conducted on sandy silty soils with a low content of non-plastic fines. These results facilitate a comprehensive examination of the potential impacts of various factors, including physical soil properties (e.g. grain size distribution), interface characteristics (surface roughness), and testing conditions (normal effective stress). Trends identified within the datasets are synthesized with insights from prior studies to propose interface shear strength parameters suitable for preliminary design employing simple index tests for non-plastic sandy soils. Finally, the paper presents a newly advanced Ring Shear Apparatus designed by Wille Geotechnik capable of accommodating static friction. This apparatus incorporates two novel test inserts that can rotate independently at varying radial speeds while being guided simultaneous
