The ratio of how much strain coming to soil for unit stress is known as compressibility.

Vasanth said:   8 years ago
Change in void ratio is volumetric strain and change in stress is denoted as stress.

av-----decrease strain /stress.

Here Av -coefficients of compressibility.

Priyansu said:   9 years ago
Av (coefficients of compressibility) -----decrease in strain /stress.

Co.eff of Compressibility is the reciprocal of young modulus.

Neru said:   6 years ago
Av = (e2-e1)/(stress2-stress1) but how strain vs stress?

I am not getting this, please Can anyone explain?

Asad said:   3 years ago
Yes, agree Strain to stress is the right answer.

Anand said:   9 years ago
Strain by stress. Please, can anyone explain it?

Mario said:   4 years ago
Decrease in void ratio to increase in stress.
