The Utility of Consolidation Data The consolidation data is used for the following purpose: 1. Safe engineering design of structures.2.
Terzaghi Theory of Consolidation The theoretical concept of consolidation process was developed by Terzaghi. In order to compute the amount
Consolidation Settlement Analysis In one dimensional consolidation, the change in the height(ΔH) (i.e settlement) per unit of original height(H) equals
Coefficient of Consolidation The term coefficient of consolidation([latex] C_{v} [/latex]) is used to indicate the combined effects of the permeability
The following tests and required sample weight are: i) Soil identification, natural moisture content test, mechanical analysis and index properties
3 Types of Soil Samples The following are the 3 types of samples which can be obtained with different sampling
Settlement of Foundation The settlement of the foundation can be defined as the reduction in the thickness of soil mass
Vane Shear Test On Soil Vane shear test is a simple and quick test, used either laboratory or in the field.
