The value of the initial void ratio in Fig. 8 (i.e., e0=0.224) should be rewritten as e0=0.224. Consequently, Fig. 8 in the original paper is redrawn.
Fig. 8. Critical state line in pq plane (CSL = critical state line)
The critical state line (CSL) of Tacheng rockfill material (TRM) in the pq plane is linear, which can be expressed as
q=Mcrp
(1)
where p = mean effective stress; q = deviatoric stress the model parameter, and Mcr = critical stress ratio.
Therefore, the equation of the CSL in the pq plane in Fig. 13 should be rewritten as Eq. (1). And, the curve line of the CSL in the pq plane in Fig. 13 should be replaced as a straight line. Fig. 13 in the original paper is replotted.

Notation

The following symbols are used in this paper:
p
mean effective stress (kPa);
q
deviatoric stress (kPa); and
Mcr
critical stress ratio.

Acknowledgments

The authors would like to acknowledge Dr. Y. C. Liu and Dr. P. Liu (at the College of Civil and Transportation Engineering, Hohai University) for pointing out the errors in the original paper.
