Wet rodding and multiple-sieve pluviation methods of controlling sand density in the preparation of frozen sand specimens for strength testing are compared. Multiple-sieve pluviation provides homogeneous, reproducible specimens at various dry densities. Unconfined compression tests indicate consistent strength data for specimens prepared by multiple-sieve pluviation, but significant scatter for compacted samples prepared by the wet rodding method. For the testing conditions reported in this paper the stress- strain behaviour of frozen sand specimens was dependent on initial dry density; at low densities, strain softening with constant peak stress was observed. For higher densities, the samples exhibited strain hardening behaviour, peak stre...
