Problematyka badań współczynnika filtracji w aparacie trójosiowego ściskania

Laboratory tests, which enable determination of the permeability properties of soil, are distinguished by the accuracy and relatively shorttesttime. Moreover, laboratory methods using a triaxial compression apparatus expand capability for tests with a different filtration regime and a spatial stress state applied on the analysed material. Such flexibility of research procedures allows for a number of scientific and engineering applications. The article outlines the construction of the triaxial apparatus system dedicated to filtration tests, their procedure, and important interpretation aspects.
