Experimental Study on Axial Stress and Hammer Impacting Energy of Offshore Standard Penetration Test
Standard penetration test (SPT) has been widely used in offshore exploration because of its unique advantages. Unlike onshore exploration, offshore construction areas are characterized by high waves and water depths ranging from several meters to tens of

Effect of Micropiles on Clean Sand Liquefaction Risk Based on CPT and SPT
Liquefaction is a hazardous seismic-based phenomenon, which causes an abrupt decrease in soil strength properties and can result in the massive destruction of the built environment.

Assessment of liquefaction-induced hazards using Bayesian networks based on standard penetration test data [PDF]
Liquefaction-induced hazards such as sand boils, ground cracks, settlement, and lateral spreading are responsible for considerable damage to engineering structures during major earthquakes.

Influence of Drilling Methods on the Results of Standard Penetration Test in Loess–Paleosol Sequence
Standard penetration test (SPT) is an important in situ measurement for field investigation of geotechnical and geological engineering. The drilling approaches for implementation of SPT can be classified into dry, wet, and water circulation drillings ...

Estimation of deformation modulus of gravelly soils using dynamic cone penetration tests
Estimating the deformation modulus of gravelly soils is a challenging task. The estimate of deformation modulus of cohessionless soils in general relies on availability of correlation between in situ test parameters and deformation modulus back ...
