Methods of Test for Soils for Civil Engineering Purposes: Compressibility, Permeability and Durability Tests

SKU915449499 Published by British Standards Institution BSI Publication Date1990-04-30 Pages CountPages40

The BS 1377-5:1990 standard provides guidelines for conducting various tests on soils. These tests include the determination of consolidation characteristics under changing effective stress, permeability characteristics of sands, susceptibility of clays to internal erosion by water, and susceptibility of soils to heave in freezing conditions.

The standard references classification tests and soil compaction methods described in other parts of the BS 1377 series. It also refers to BS 1377-1 for general requirements applicable to all parts of the standard and for methods of preparing soil and specimens for testing.
