This document summarizes the results of a consolidation test conducted on a soil sample. It includes details such as the initial and final weights of the sample, calculations of initial and final void ratios and water content, and loading and reloading data recorded over multiple time intervals that show changes in dial readings, height, void ratio, and water content. Graphs are presented showing the relationship between void ratio and load as well as void ratio and pressure. Key results like compression index, recompression index, and coefficient of consolidation are also reported.

Calculations and Results:

Weight of ring only: 69.5 gm

Weight of ring + sample (before test): 180.2 gm

W (before test) = 180.2-69.5=110.7 gm

Weight of ring + sample (after test): 161.25 gm

Weight of sample (dry) = 161.25- 69.5= 91.75gm
