Abstract

The theoretical consolidation curve based on Terzaghi's theory has been successfully represented by a simple explicit algebraic equation. The use of this equation has been extended by obtaining an expression for consolidation-coefficient involving selected three oedometer test data. This method, unlike the existing one, does not require the use of graphs or charts and it can be effectively used on a digital computer
