I recently had a consolidated undrained triaxial test with pore pressure measurements performed and need some assistance in determining if the results look valid. If I am interpreting this correctly, the pore pressure is much greater than the cell pressure. In calculating the effective value, this would yield a negative value for the effective minor stress. Looking for some insight as to whether the results look correct. If not, what would be some issues that would cause the errors. My initial thought is that the pore pressure looks to high, but not sure. I've attached the test report
