Solution
1. In the Oedometer test the soil specimen is placed between two POROUS STONES to ensure double drainage.
2. Under the application of a normal load, a soil specimen continues to deform even after the primary consolidation process is over due to the effects of PLASTIC READJUSTMENT OF THE SOLID PARTICLES AND THE ADSORBED WATER TO THE NEW STRESS SYSTEM.
3. In an Oedometer test, at each incriment the applied load is typically DOUBLED THE PREVIOUS LOAD APPLIED.
