The stress—strain response of overconsolidated clay depends both on its current state and on the loading history followed to reach that state, in particular the relative directions of the current and previous loading paths. A constitu-tive soil model is developed which predicts this behaviour by allowing elasto-plastic deformations controlled by two nested kinematic hardening surfaces inside a conventional Modified Cam-clay state boundary surface. This relatively straightforward model requires only eight para-meters, each with a rational basis, and which can be determined from a small number of well-controlled stress path tests. Predictions of soil behaviour using this model are compared with data from triaxial stress path tests. The close agreement confirms that the essential features of soil behaviour are predicted by the model. The wider implications of the use of the model in geotechnical analysis are illustrated by compar-ing predictions made using the model (in conjunction with finite element analys...
