Compression Constant

When plotting the effective vertical stress against the vertical strain in the semi-logarithmic scale we often arrive at a linear dependency.

Detemination of compression constant C

The slope of this curve is one of the soil parameters particularly in the case of a one-dimensional deformation and is referred to as the compression constant C:

where:

σ1ef

-

initial effective stress of soil in oedometer

σ2ef

-

final effective stress of soil in oedometer
