The structure of the sedimentary clay influences its mechanical behavior in non-negligible ways. This paper proposes an effective approach for investigating the in-situ stiffness characteristics from shear modulus and strain decay curves (G–γcurves) based on self-boring pressuremeter and seismic dilatometer tests. To evaluate the excavation disturbance effects on the structured clay, the stiffness parameters from pre-bored pressuremeter tests are compared with the results of self-boring pressuremeter tests. The result indicates that the complete in-situG–γcurves can be acquired by integrating the strain-dependent tangent shear modulusGtfrom self-boring pressuremeter tests and the small-strain modulusG0from seismic dilatometer tests. Simultaneous observations of theG–γcurves with hyperbolic shapes in semi-logarithmic coordinates at the same strain scale show the similarity of the stiffness decay mode of the soil at different depths. The increase in the measured values ofGtandG0with depth can be attributed to the improved consolidation pressures and cemented strength in the structured clay. Additionally, the G/G0–γcurves measured by the in-situ tests generally agree well with the results predicted by the Stokoe model. The excavation disturbance weakens the stiffness of the structured clay, as evidenced byGtfrom the pre-bored pressuremeter data being significantly smaller than that from self-boring pressuremeter tests at the same depth. Based on quantitative analysis, the disturbance degree computed from the measured results has a low sensitivity to the soil depth and a strong negative correlation with the strain level of the soil. This study provides an effective method for predicting the stiffness parameters of structured soil based on in-situ tests.
