3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the purpose of plotting dial readings against the square root of time?
Think about how plotting helps understand relationships.
What does point S represent on the consolidation curve?
What did we draw to find point S?
What is the first step in identifying point S?
Consider what data we need first.
True or False: The drainage path length affects the time required for consolidation.
Think back to the proportional relationships discussed.
Analyze a set of consolidation data to calculate point S using provided dial readings and drainage path specifications. Consider different scenarios of drainage lengths.
Don’t forget to check the tangent effects on your identification!
Given various soil samples with differing drainage path lengths, predict their consolidation rates and discuss how line PR’s slope might change based on this data.
Think critically about the implications of differing paths.
