    This document describes a method for determining the coefficient of consolidation (Cv) using the Cassagrande method. A soil sample is placed in an oedometer apparatus and subjected to a constant load. The dial readings are taken over time on a logarithmic scale to show consolidation settlement. The Cv is calculated from the slope of the consolidation curve in the logarithmic time scale.
