Placed at the top and bottom of the specimen to allow water to enter the soil uniformly while preventing soil piping.
| Application | Description | |-------------|-------------| | | Predicts ground surface rise from wetting-induced expansion of unsaturated soils (e.g., damage to foundations, slabs, and pavements) | | Settlement estimation | Assesses potential collapse settlement when previously unsaturated soils become fully saturated (important for fills, embankments, and shallow foundations on collapsible deposits) | | Foundation design | Provides essential soil parameters for designing structures on problematic soil profiles | | Quality control | Confirms that compacted fills meet swell/collapse criteria in sensitive projects |
