Consolidation
Consolidation
| Description | Price |
| Consolidation in a Hydraulic Cell up to 4 days duration (BS1377 : Part 6 : Clause 3 : 1990) |
Up to 100 mm diameter: £ 340.00 150 mm diameter: £ 360 250 mm diameter: £ 420.00 |
| Extra over days in excess of initial 4 days | + £ 35.00 |
| Remoulding specimen at as-received moisture content | + £ 20.00 |
Results given
Coefficient(s) of Consolidation and Compressibility
You provide
- Remoulding conditions, if applicable.
- Direction of Flow (inwards, outwards, vertical etc.)
- Loading Condition (free or equal strain)
- Effective consolidation pressure(s)
Typical use(s)
Determining consolidation properties in a particular mode/orientation of drainage, particularly where the in-situ material is in layers of different permeabilities.
Material required
Enough material to fill apparatus with an internal diameter of 76mm, 100mm, 150mm or 250mm and a height of approximately 1/3 to 1/2 the diameter.
Notes
- This test may be performed with a permeability stage after each consolidation stage. The cost is only affected by the additional day charge(s) incurred.
- The duration of this test is material dependent, and can be long, particularly for low-permeability large diameter samples.
- We would recommend that you liaise with us before embarking on this testing to enable us to give you a better indication of the likely duration and total cost.
