Introduction

Provide your engineers with instant access to laboratory test results. SoilVision provides the most advanced reporting and analysis options of any database system available. Soils data is stored on a globally standardized database single-file format. SoilVision is also compatible with industry standards of testing for the following tests:

  • Soil shrinkage (ASTM D427)
  • Saturated coefficient of diffusion and diffusion as a function of soil suction
  • Unfrozen volumetric water content as a function of temperature
  • Thermoconductivity as a function of soil suction
  • Water Content
  • Specific Gravity
  • Double Hydrometer
  • Sieve Analysis (ASTM D422-54T)
  • Hydrometer Analysis (ASTM D422-54T)
  • Consolidation (Compression) Test (ASTM D4546)
  • Isotropic Triaxial Test (Critical State)
  • Triaxial tests for shear strength (Bishop and Henkel, 1962)
  • Shear box tests for shear strength (Bureau of Public Roads, Washington, D.C.)
  • Standard and Modified Proctor compaction tests (ASTM D698)
  • Dozens of methods of measurement of the soil-water characteristic curve
  • Several methods of measurement of saturated hydraulic conductivity as well as hydraulic conductivity as a function of soil suction or void ratio
  • California Bearing Ratio (CBR) ASTM D 1883
  • Standard Penetration Test (SPT)
  • Cone Penetration Test (CPT)
  • Atterberg Limits
  • Hveem - Carmeny Test
  • FHA Swell Test
  • Pinhole Test
