EVALUATION OF MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF VARVED CLAY FROM RADZYMIN TEST SITE USING SEISMIC CONE PENETROMETER

Journal Title: Biuletyn Państwowego Instytutu Geologicznego - Year 2011, Vol 446, Issue 446

Abstract

This paper presents a method of seismic piezocone tests. It presents a brief description of the SCPTu Geotech testing apparatus and testing methodology. The results obtained at Mokre test site from in situ measurements of seismic wave velocity in varved clays are presented and analyzed. Local statistical correlations between shear wave velocityVs and cone resistance [i]q[/i][sub][i]t[/i][/sub] are presented in this paper.
