Consolidated Drained - Triaxial Test: Consolidation Results

This document summarizes the results of a consolidated drained triaxial test on a soil sample from a depth of 5.00-5.50 meters at the Matarbari Ultra Super Critical Coal-Fired Power Project site in Matarbari, Bangladesh. The test was conducted according to ASTM D 2850-70 and involved measuring the volume change, consolidation properties, stress-strain behavior, and Mohr-Coulomb failure envelope of two soil specimens under varying confining pressures. Key results included the time for 90% consolidation, coefficient of consolidation, deviator stress values, axial stresses, cohesion, angle of shear, and major and minor principal stresses.
