FIELD: investigation of foundation soil in situ, particularly to construct and reconstruct existent buildings and building structures.
SUBSTANCE: method involves monoaxial ground sample compression in compression apparatus along with prevention of radial expansion thereof, wherein the ground sample is tested in stress release regime; plotting compression curve after each stage termination by final stress values and corresponding sample deformations. As predetermined sample deformation value is achieved additional ground sample settlement is restricted by partial stress release to approximate value thereof to conditional stress stabilization or sample deformation value.
EFFECT: reduced ground investigation time.
