Consolidation Apparatus
Ref. Standards: IS 2720 (Part XV), IS 12287, BS 1377, ASTM D2435
Consolidation of clay deposits leads to distress in buildings, such as cracks and failures. Consolidation is the reduction of the volume of soil due to the expulsion of water from its pore space caused by sustained loading. This phenomenon is time dependent. The one-dimensional consolidation test performed on an undisturbed sample of clay is useful for understanding the history of the soil deposit. The test results can be used for calculating the settlement of structures built on clayey soil.

Latest Development:
Consolidation Apparatus, Automatic Touchscreen Consolidation Apparatus, Single/Three Gang with Aimil Analysis Software (AIM 127-4-T and AIM 127-4-T-3)
Ref. Std.: IS 2720-15, IS 12287
The Automatic Consolidation Apparatus eliminates the use of the traditional hanging weight system. It is a compact, tabletop system with low power consumption and highly accurate output of results. The instrument minimises the human factor/error associated with the conventional testing method. The instrument performs the test as per ASTM.
