The cone penetrometer with pore pressure measurement
Abstract
Piezocone design, field and laboratory testing, cone penetrometer analyzis in clay, and rate effects are discussed. Correction of readings, soil type, undrained shear strength from cone resistance and from excess pore pressures, overconsolidation ratio, and hydraulic characteristics are covered.
