LOW-COST ELECTRO-MECHANICAL PRESS FOR DETERMINING PRE-CONSOLIDATION PRESSURE [PDF]
The pre-consolidation pressure is a soil parameter indicating the maximum load that can be supported without irreversible deformation. However, the commercially available equipment for such determination is very expensive, limiting studies on this ...

Effect of Loading Duration on the Parameters Obtained from Consolidation Test [PDF]
Consolidation properties of clay soils are evaluated in the laboratory using the one-dimensional consolidation test. The one-dimensional consolidation testing procedure was first suggested by Terzaghi (1925).

Investigation of an Empirical Creep Constitutive Model of Changsha Red Loam
To describe and predict the creep deformation of Changsha red loam (including sandy soil and silty clay) in China, an empirical creep model was proposed based on a laboratory consolidation compression test. Two classical soil layers were sampled from the

Permeability coefficient tests in non-cohesive soils
The paper aims to comparison the permeability coefficient in non-cohesive soils by the method of test pumping and based on tests in a consolidometer. The tests were carried out on 18 types of non-cohesive soils with different fraction. Pumping tests were
