The influence of pore pressure gradients in soil classification during piezocone penetration test
Abstract The standard cone penetration test (CPT) measures the resistance at the tip ( q c ) during constant rate of penetration as well as the friction/adhesion along the sleeve ( fs ). The excess porewater pressures generated as a result of the penetration can also be measured by a piezometer/transducer ( u 2 ) located immediately behind the cone

Interpretation of the lime column penetration test
Dry soil mix (DSM) columns can be used to reduce the settlement of embankments constructed on soft clays and to improve the stability. During construction the shear strength of the columns needs to be confirmed for compliance with technical assumptions ...

A Novel Method for Estimating the Undrained Shear Strength of Marine Soil Based on CPTU Tests
The undrained shear strength is an essential parameter in the foundation design of marine structures. Due to the complex marine environment and technical limitations, it is difficult and costly to obtain offshore samples.

Estimating hydraulic conductivity from piezocone soundings
A method for estimating the hydraulic conductivity ofsoils from piezocone penetration tests is suggested in this paper. By invoking Darcy's law over the finite time required for an increment of cone penetration, it isargued that there will be some water ...

Analysis of piezocone penetration under different drainage conditions with the two-phase Material Point Method [PDF]
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 ...
