        <annotation>
            <documentation>An object describing the properties of a laboratory triaxial shear test
                procedure. In a triaxial shear test, stress is applied to a sample in a way which
                results in stresses along one axis being different from the stresses in
                perpendicular directions. In conventional triaxial tests, this involves subjecting a
                cylindrical soil sample to radial stresses (confining pressure) and controlled
                increases in axial stresses or axial displacements. Depending on the combination of
                loading and drainage condition, three main types of triaxial tests can be carried
                out: 1) Consolidated – Drained (CD), 2) Consolidated – Undrained (CU), 3)
                Unconsolidated - Undrained (UU). From the triaxial test results, it is possible to
                deduce the shear strength parameters, namely friction angle, cohesion, dilatancy
                angle and the other dependent parameters.</documentation>

            <documentation>An object describing a consolidation test procedure. This test is
                performed to determine the magnitude and rate of volume decrease that a laterally
                confined soil specimen undergoes when subjected to different vertical pressures.
                From the measured data, the consolidation curve (pressure-void ratio relationship)
                can be plotted. This data is useful in determining the compression index (slope of
                virgin curve), the recompression index (slope of recompression curve) and the
                preconsolidation pressure (or maximum past pressure) of the soil. In addition, the
                data obtained can also be used to determine the coefficient of consolidation and the
                coefficient of secondary compression of the soil.</documentation>
