Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of soil testing, and in particular to a testing method for obtaining soil compression modulus by utilizing expansive concrete. Background Art
[0002] The compression modulus is an important indicator for determining soil compressibility and calculating foundation compression deformation. The smaller the soil's compression modulus, the higher its compressibility.
