Undrained test

Question:

Unconfined compressive strength test is:

Options:
A)

undrained test

B)

drained test

C)

consolidated undrained test

D)

None of the above

Solution:

Ans: (a) The purpose of this laboratory is to determine the unconfined compressive strength of a cohesive soil sample. We will measure this with the unconfined compression test, which is an unconsolidated undrained (UU or Q-type) test where the lateral confining pressure is equal to zero (atmospheric pressure).
