Piezocone penetration test-based site characterisation of Chong–Qi Bridge project, China
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Forensic Engineering, 2020 The piezocone penetration test (CPTU) provides an advanced way of characterising soil deposits in routine site investigation. This paper presents a synthesised application of CPTU in the site characterisation of Chongming–Qidong Bridge project in China, including soil classification, soil property evaluation and pile capacity estimation.

Finite-Element Analysis of Inclined Piezocone Penetration Test in Clays
International Journal of Geomechanics, 2005A three-dimensional finite-element analysis was performed to analyze the effect of soil anisotropy on the inclined piezocone penetration test in normally consolidated clay. The piezocone penetration was numerically simulated based on a large strain formulation using the commercial finite-element code ABAQUS, and the anisotropic modified cam clay model (

Piezocone Penetration Testing in Atlantic Piedmont Residuum
Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2001Piezocone soundings were performed in residual silts and fine sands of the U.S. Atlantic Piedmont geologic province to investigate penetration pore-water pressures and subsequent dissipation characteristics in these nontextbook geomaterials. Piedmont residuum has been formed by the in-place weathering of Paleozoic schist, gneiss, and granite.

Multifunctional Piezocone Penetration Testing in Geotechnical Practice
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2011Cone penetration test is a fast and efficient in-situ test technique. With the development of sensor technology and the use of new probes, such test is employed in more fields and reveals more soil parameters. Based on advanced CPTU equipment, soil types were classified.

Estimating Embankment Settlement from Piezocone Penetration Test Data
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2011The in situ piezocone penetration test (PCPT) has been widely used by the geotechnical engineering community for subsurface soil identification and classification and for the evaluation of many engineering soil properties, such as consolidation parameters. PCPT-derived consolidation properties can be used to estimate the magnitude and time rate of the

A Soil Stratifying Method Based on Piezocone Penetration Test
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013This paper introduces the empirical method of classifying soil layers with CPTU. Pore pressure dissipation test was taken in a certain soft clay field, according to the characteristics of penetration curve and the value of static point resistance, frictional resistance, friction-resistance ratio, soil horizon was divided.

Marine soil behaviour classification using piezocone penetration test (CPTu) and borehole records
Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 2021Several piezocone penetration test (CPTu)-based soil behaviour classification systems (SBCs) have been developed for standard sites, where clays, silt, and sand dominate. However, problems can occur when applying the SBCs to offshore sites, where the marine soils may be decomposed from rocks or mixed with artificial fills.
