Utah FORGE: Triaxial Direct Shear Results - February 2025 Update
This submission contains a metadata and measurements from 9 triaxial direct shear tests conducted by Los Alamos National Laboratory. Samples used were sourced from FORGE Well 16A(78)-32. The primary objectives of this work were to determine the shear strength in both intact and residual states, evaluate dilation against displacement, assess permeability in relation to displacement, time, and normal stress, understand the relationship between aperture and normal stress, and monitor the effluent chemistry as a function of time. Data sets include timeseries measurements, profilometry, photographs, and effluent chemistry with an without experimental dilution process corrections.
