Sample Retainers for Measuring Water Retention by Soil
1956
Richards, L. A.
The relation of the water content of soil to suction may be determined by use of suction control surfaces, ceramic or cellulosic, in pressure chambers. Advantage is gained for these measurements by placing the sample under test in a retainer having a porous ceramic bottom plate. Retainers for use with core and fragmented samples are described and procedures are given for their use.
