Is it not necessary to perform the unloading-loading cycle in order to calculate the swell index and recompression coefficient?

Do you use also Taylor and the Bjerrum and the isotachen methode to do the calculations for al parameters?

@willliamkitch2967 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, you can use those methods. For my intro geotech class I teach just the Casagrande method, because I think it’s the most intuitive. In practice I like to use the Taylor method as well because it allows you to project ahead where Casagrande’s method allows you to find t-100 only by looking back in time. If you need the secondary compression index, you need to use Casagrade’s method. I don’t use Bjerrum’s isochrone theory. It’s not common in practice in the US.

Can you please explain why mostly we get degree of saturation of the final more than the initial and some times we get degree of saturation more than 100% ?? Thanks

There are no such things as more than 100% degree of saturation
