Influence of Time and Load on Soil Deformation in Soil Compression Test

Abstract

In the process of water conservancy project design and construction, strict experiments should be carried out on the geology and soil conditions at the foundation surface of various water conser-vancy buildings to determine their various properties, such as compressibility, water permeability, bulk density, porosity, etc. Some dams are directly filled with earth and rock materials. Even after the completion of dam construction, the water permeability and settlement of foundation or dam body should be often monitored. Therefore, higher requirements are put forward for the understanding of soil engineering properties. The soil mechanics experiment—soil compression test is the required experiment, taking the experimental data recorded in the experiment as the statistics, supplemented by the knowledge of binary analysis of variance in statistics, to judge the influence of time and load on soil compression deformation variables in the compression test. It can be seen from the experimental results that the load factor has the greatest impact on the test, that is, the most significant is the time factor, although it has an impact on the results, it is not significant. The results of this study have reference significance for water conservancy projects.
