Calibrations of a high-suction tensiometer (2008)
Journal Article
Lourenço, S., Gallipoli, D., Toll, D., Augarde, C., Evans, F., & Medero, G. (2008). Calibrations of a high-suction tensiometer. Géotechnique, 58(8), 659-668. https://doi.org/10.1680/geot.2008.58.8.659

High-suction tensiometers are able to measure suctions up to 2 MPa. Direct calibration at such high suctions requires the imposition of negative water pressures, which are difficult to achieve using facilities commonly available in soil mechanics lab...
