Geotechnical Laboratory

Assalamualaikum dear :)

I miss korang , haha nampak tak busy tau jadi engineering students ni, nampak je rileks but it really :(. Tapi takpe my mum pesan, pilih "susah sekarang, senang kemudian OR senang sekarang, susah kemudian"..

And my own philosophy ---> *ceh bajet pandai gile, just wanna to share with my sweethearts..
"kalau tak usaha dari sekarang subjek yang ko cakap susah sangat tu, next sem you will face it AGAIN". again ? Nauzubillah..
InsyaAllah semoga kita diberi kekuatan menempuh segala cabaran in our life, by giving test .. that show Allah love us <3

Okey, this week we handling two experiment Constant Head apparatus for testing the permeability of granular soils. Falling head apparatus for testing the permeability of fine grain size (e.g : clay and silt). So , untuk falling head ni  boleh bayangkan tak betapa lamanya ?? Tanah liat ...
Scientific tak young engineers ni kerja ?

Sorry for unclear image, ken cari berapa ml after certain time. Using pipette starter je :)

Scientific tak ? *suppose guna paip kitaorang curah je.

Our observer : Encik harith ??? haha

Since we practicing OPEN ENDED LABORATORY.
our faculty only, civil engineering. urghh.
LEVEL 0- all given
LEVEL 1- no result (table) given
LEVEL 2- no procedure given, only objective, problem statement
LEVEL 3- only tittle ?

Thus, this table got on the apparatus . huhu

Falling head apparatus.

Not a joke okey ? seriously happen in our faculty, our university.

This experiment for plastic limit and liquid limit.

Find the mass of empty can.

Our sample.

in order to find plastic ,limit we need to do thread of soil. around 3mm. then, let them in oven for 24 hours :)

After 24 hours, the soil thread will become mass of dry soil ! GLOVE we need you, if not ....

Liquid limit using cone penetration .. Put the soil in a mould.

Repeating the same steps for 5 times . to get different value of penetration reading on different value of moisture used.  Mix well the soil and water around 15 minutes or else WRONG !!

My classmate

tersesat gambar ni, ni structure and materials laboratory ye :) torsion.

Dah ciaww, orang dah panggil, selamat mengundi bagi yang layak. kami tak lagi :)
salam ..
