Site investigations for ports, bridges, and offshore facilities benefit from the use of piezocone tests in the field exploration program since multiple continuous readings with depth are obtained by the soundings. The interpretation of the piezocone resistances ...

Effective overburden stress can have a significant influence on cone penetration test
CPT measurements. This influence can lead to an incorrect assessment of soil strength/resistance for such purposes as liquefaction triggering analysis. For an accurate measurement ...
