	Coefficient(s) of Consolidation and Compressibility	Remoulding conditions, if applicable. Direction of Flow (inwards, outwards, vertical etc.) Loading Condition (free or equal strain) Effective consolidation pressure(s)
	Typical use(s):	Material required:
	Determining consolidation properties in a particular mode/orientation of drainage, particularly where the in-situ material is in layers of different permeabilities.	Enough material to fill apparatus with an internal diameter of 76mm, 100mm, 150mm or 250mm and a height of approximately 1/3 to 1/2 the diameter.
	Description	Price excl. VAT
	Consolidation in a Hydraulic Cell up to 4 days duration (BS1377 : Part 6 : Clause 3 : 1990)	up to 100mm diameter: £270.00 over 100mm diameter: £ 310.00
	Extra over days in excess of initial 4 days	£ 30.00 per day
	Remoulding specimen at as-received moisture content	£ 15.00 for up to 100mm diameter
	Notes
	This test may be performed with a permeability stage after each consolidation stage. The cost is only affected by the additional day charge(s) incurred. The duration of this test is material dependent, and can be long, particularly for low-permeability large diameter samples. We would recommend that you liaise with us before embarking on this testing to enable us to give you a better indication of the likely duration and total cost.
