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. 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. Because soil is compressible, the impact of the stress distribution in the foundation soil under the action of upper loads on the soil's compression process must be considered when calculating foundation settlement. Therefore, soil compressibility is crucial for calculating foundation settlement.
