£ 360.00

Extra over days in excess of initial 4 days + £ 30.00

Remoulding specimen at as-received + £ 18.00 for up to 100 mm

moisture content diameter

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.

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.

This test does not provide consolidation properties, Mv and Cv.

To include those, please specify Consolidation in a Hydraulic
Cell, adding permeability stages if required.
