METHOD FOR DETERMINATION OF STRESS-RUPTURE PROPERTIES AND SWELLING PRESSURE IN CLAY GROUND

摘要

FIELD: measuring equipment.;SUBSTANCE: method includes forming thin slices out of soil sample, encapsuling them in water-absorbing coating and intermitting with hard inserts. Then this pack is loaded, e.g. by dynamometre, at a given pressure, plates are saturated with water after pressure stabilisation, and diagram in pressure-time coordinates is drawn on the basis of dynamometre readings to determine values required.;EFFECT: reduced test duration without effect on error value.;2 dwg
