Consolidation (Odeometer)

NT-S0030 is used to determine the behavior of the soil sample upon certain loading in a specified period of time. It indicates the settlement characteristics of the soil which is known as Consolidation.

The beam provides three loading ratios: 9:1, 10:1, and 11:1. The beam assembly is fitted with an adjustable counterbalance weight.

Maximum load: 170 kg of slotted weights, corresponding to 1870 kg using the beam ratio 11:1.

Consolidation cells are manufactured from corrosion-resistant materials in accordance to the standards. The outer wall of the cell is made of Plexiglas, and collapse can be observed during testing. All cells are supplied with upper and lower porous stones, a loading head, and a cutting ring.
