Assignment UPM UPM UNIVERSITI PUTRA MALAYSIA • In an Oedometer test on specimen of saturated clay (G,= 2.72), the following compression readings recorded: Pressure (kPa) 0 40 80 160 320 640 1280 2560 0 Dial gauge after 24h 8.000 7.878 7.545 7.102 6.546 5.785 4.705 3.825 4.433 (mm) • The initial thickness of the sample was 19.0 mm and at the end of the test the water content was 21.0%. Plot the e-log o' curve and determine the preconsolidation pressure. • Determine the values of my for the stress increments 100-200 and 1000-1500 kPa. What is the value of C for the previous increment? ܂
