This Method describes a procedure for determining the rate and magnitude of consolidation of soil when it is restrained laterally and loaded and drained axially, using either manual loading or automated equipment. It gives the most reliable results when used on saturated clay soils.
This Method was prepared by the Standards Australia Committee CE-009, Testing of Soils for Engineering Purposes, to supersede AS 1289.6.6.1—1998, Methods of testing soils for engineering purposes, Method 6.6.1: Soil strength and consolidation tests—Determination of the one-dimensional consolidation properties of a soil—Standard method.
A list of all test methods in the AS 1289 series can be found in the Standards Australia online catalogue. The objective of this Standard is to determine the rate and magnitude of consolidation of soil when it is restrained laterally and loaded and drained axially, using either manual loading or automated equipment. The Method is most reliable when used on saturated clay soils. For these soils, the rate of consolidation is sufficiently slow for results to be correctly interpreted following the procedures set out in this Standard.
