Consolidation Test Data Analysis

The document contains the results of a consolidation test conducted to analyze the consolidation behavior of soil. It includes observations recorded over time such as changes in mass, dial gauge readings, and calculated values like void ratio and stress. Graphs were plotted of stress versus void ratio and void ratio versus log of stress, which indicated that the soil has a compression index of 0.127 and recompression index of 0.999808.
