Guidelines for Using the CPT, CPTU and MARCHETTI DMT for Geotechnical Design. Volume 1. Summary
The volume introduces the reader to the two types of insitu geotechnical investigation tests around which the research revolved, namely the Cutch cone penetration test (CPT), the CPT with pore pressure measurement (piezocone, CPTU) and the Marchetti Dilatometer Test (DMT). The volume presents a brief introductory discussion of each of these tests along with discussing associated equipment and costs and an introduction to the geotechnical engineering properties predicted by these tests. To familiarize the reader with the potential broad useage of the results from these tests in engineering design, there are chapters on embankments, piles, footing and earth pressure and other problems. These are intended to introduce the user to the broad applicability of these tests into the design process for these foundation problems commonly encountered by Department of Transportation engineers. The appendices include typical examples of the computer-reduced data from CPT and DMT soundings, examples of DMT-based settlement calculations for bridge abutments, an example slope stability problem, and finally extensive CPT plus CPTU and DMT bibliographies.
