What is One-Dimensional Soil Consolidation about?
1. Consolidation is the process by which saturated soil decreases in volume over time due to expulsion of pore water from the soil as it undergoes compression from an applied load. 2. Terzaghi developed the one-dimensional consolidation theory to model this process, with assumptions of lateral confinement and vertical drainage. 3. In a consolidation test, loads are incrementally applied to a saturated soil sample to determine its compression characteristics and preconsolidation pressure, the maximum prior
