Entry: Huder-Amberg swelling test
URI: https://data.geoscience.fr/ncl/Proc/127
The Huder-Amberg test is a swelling test performed in oedometric cell. The test procedure includes three steps :1.reconfinement of the sample under a stress equivalent to the in stu stress, 2.wetting the sample and observe its swelling until stabilisation, 3.decremental unloading. The effect of load reduction is to allow swelling. The change in sample height is recorded until stabilisation, and unloading step, is repeated several times .
