How should one calculate the membrane correction for a triaxial test (CU or CD?
I am busy updating our calculation sheets, and for some reason this has been omitted from the older sheets.

Thank you in advance.

See ASTM D2850

However; unless you have a very soft soil, I would ignore the membrane correction.
