THE INFLUENCE OF SOIL STIFFNESS AND LATERAL STRESS ON THE RESULTS OF INSITU SOIL TESTS
The results of in-situ tests depend on the strength, stiffness and permeability properties of the ground, as well as the in-situ stresses. Results are presented for the cone penetrometer, piezocone, Marchetti dilatometer and cone-pressuremeter, and tests in both clays and sands are considered. Recom...

Summary: | The results of in-situ tests depend on the strength, stiffness and permeability properties of the ground, as well as the in-situ stresses. Results are presented for the cone penetrometer, piezocone, Marchetti dilatometer and cone-pressuremeter, and tests in both clays and sands are considered. Recommendations are made for use of appropriate in-situ tests in different circumstances. -from Authors |
