Development of the heat flow cone penetration test (HF-CPT)
Symposium on Energy Geotechnics 2023, 2023 The heat flow cone penetration test (HF-CPT) provides in-situ values of thermal conductivity (patent pending). The HF-CPT test records include (1) heat flow (HF) measurements acquired by a CPT add-on module, i.e. heating power and temperature versus time and (2) cone penetration test (CPT) measurements, i.e.

A method for predicting the influence of matric suction changes on CPT tip resistance [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2019 The Cone Penetration Test (CPT) is a valuable tool for continuous soil profiling and estimating soil properties. A CPT sounding will often pass through the active zone of an unsaturated soil profile, near the ground surface where moisture conditions and ...

An initiative to correlate the SPT and CPT data for an alluvial deposit of Dhaka city
International Journal of Geo-Engineering, 2022 The Standard Penetration Test (SPT) is the most common in-situ tests for soil investigations. On the other hand, the Cone Penetration Test (CPT) is considered one of the best investigation tools.

Interpreting and validating the thermal cone penetration test (T-CPT) [PDF]
Géotechnique, 2019 The thermal cone penetration test (T-CPT) allows in situ measurement of the thermal properties of soil during a CPT – that is without withdrawing the CPT tool and introducing another tool such as a thermal needle probe. An interpretation method is presented based on one-dimensional axisymmetric analytical solutions.

Evaluation of potential liquefaction based on Cone Penetration Test (CPT) data
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021 Abstract An earthquake can inflict a liquefaction hazards which can damage buildings and infrastructure. Furthermore, earthquakes are difficult to predict when and where earthquakes will occur and happen suddenly without being preceded by signs.

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

The cone penetration test in unsaturated silty sands
E3S 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.

Analysis of piezocone penetration under different drainage conditions with the two-phase Material Point Method [PDF]
, 2016 The piezocone penetration test (CPTU) is commonly used to identify the soil profile and to estimate material properties. Depending on the soil type, ranging from clay to sand, undrained, partially drained or drained conditions may occur during cone ...
