Determination of Time To Reach 50 % Consolidation

The document contains data from a consolidation test measuring the deformation of a sample over time when subjected to an increasing load. It records the dial gage reading, deformation, and time at regular intervals. A graph plots deformation against the log of time, showing deformation increasing over time and leveling off around 50% consolidation after approximately 16 minutes. Key measurements taken include a deformation of 0.13 mm for 50% consolidation occurring after 16.436 minutes.
