AN ASSESSMENT OF CHAMBER SIZE EFFECTS IN THE CALIBRATION OF INSITU TESTS IN SAND

An assessment is made of the effects of chamber size on the measured values of the limit pressure obtained from the pressuremeter test and on the cone resistance values from the cone penetrometer test. Experimental and numerical data suggest that the effect of the proximity of the chamber boundaries...

总结:An assessment is made of the effects of chamber size on the measured values of the limit pressure obtained from the pressuremeter test and on the cone resistance values from the cone penetrometer test. Experimental and numerical data suggest that the effect of the proximity of the chamber boundaries is significant for dense and medium sand, and is observed even for loose sand. -from Authors
