The choice of reference stress state as datum for zero lateral strain is identified as a problem inherent in the determination of K_0 of sand by laboratory tests. A new, but simple, test method based on strain path testing is presented. This new test method enables a systematic investigation into the influence of a non-zero isotropic reference stress on the measured K_0 value. The results of such a study introduces the concept of a threshold reference stress, p'_<00>, the maximum reference effective stress that can be used to ensure the correct determination of K_0 value for a normally consolidated condition. p'_<00> is dependent on the effective axial stress, σ'_a, at which K_0 is to be measured. The value of σ'_a/p'_<00>, however, lies within a narrow range. For an over-consolidated condition, K_0 appears to be independent of p'_0 Provided the preconsolidation stress is significantly higher than p'_<00>.
