The cone penetration test in unsaturated silty sands
Very little is known about how to interpret the cone penetration test (CPT) when performed in unsaturated soils. The few published studies on the CPT in unsaturated soils have focused on either clean sands or a silt.

Machine Learning Techniques for Soil Characterization Using Cone Penetration Test Data
Seismic response assessment requires reliable information about subsurface conditions, including soil shear wave velocity (Vs). To properly assess seismic response, engineers need accurate information about Vs, an essential parameter for evaluating the ...

A Method for Predicting Pile Capacity Using Cone Penetration Test Data [PDF]
The massive construction in poor lands has encouraged engineers to use deep foundations in order to transfer superstructure loads to the subsoil. Since soil excavation, sampling, and laboratory testing as a part of site investigation are relatively ...
