The cone penetration test in unsaturated silty sands

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2016
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.

Investigation into the effect of uncertainty of CPT-based soil type estimation on the accuracy of CPT-based pile bearing capacity analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cone Penetration Test (CPT or CPTu) is commonly used for estimating soil types and also for the geotechnical design of pile foundation. However, the level of agreement between the CPT-based soil types and the traditional identification of soil types ...
