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 ...
