The initial specific gravity and moisture content of the soil is determined.• A length of about three-inch sample is cut and placed on the consolidation ring. The ring is rotated to pare off the excess soil by cutting such that the sample is reduced to the same that is inside the diameter of the ring. The cutting tool is held horizontally while cutting the excess soil.• The ring turned carefully to remove the soil portion that is protruding from the ring. A straight metal edge is used to cut the surface flush of the soil with the ring surface. The final portion is removed with a lot of carefulness.• The weighed glass plate covered with Saran is placed on the freshly cut surface, and Saran is peeled off the surface and the ring is turned and the other end is cut on the opposite side. The specimen is weighed together with a ring and the glass plate.• The ring is removed carefully from the sample and filter papers are placed between the porous stone and the specimen. The specimen is lightly lowered to the base of the water reservoir where the water tank is filled with water to saturate the sample.• The dial gauge is adjusted to read zero.
