Consolidation test is used to determine the rate and magnitude of soil consolidation when the soil is restrained laterally and loaded axially. The Consolidation test is also referred to as Standard Oedometer test or One-dimensional compression test.

Geotechnical investigation is a process that evaluates the physical qualities of a site to determine if it is suitable and safe for the proposed purpose. It involves: 

• Drilling boreholes
• Taking soil samples
• Testing the samples in a laboratory
• Analyzing the test report
• Recommending a suitable foundation

The investigation is primarily concerned with testing the physical properties of the soil. It provides recommendations for foundation requirements, excavation stability, drainage, and buried concrete design. The depth and number of holes depend on the area of the site and type of structure that will be built. Some parameters that can be statistically analyzed include: Angle of internal friction, Drained cohesion, Undrained cohesion, Relative density, Consistency index. Geotechnical engineers are responsible for the design of the soil investigation scope.
