heal.abstract	Bardanis & Kawadas (2006) proposed an empirical relation between residual void ratio er of clayey soils after drying and simple properties: initial void ratio e0, liquid limit wl and specific gravity Gs. Additional results are presented in this paper which support a new relation based on plastic limit wp, along with new results from undisturbed soil specimens, which indicate the possible effect of structure due to natural processes. A generalised relation therefore would predict er from e0, wp, Gs and an empirical parameter related to the structure of natural soils. However, the findings of this study indicate great scatter in correlations of er with soil index properties. Additionally, studies on undisturbed soils indicate considerable influence of soil stress history on er, thus complicating the development of a generalized relation for predictive purposes. © 2008 Taylor & Francis Group, London.	en
