Continuous Intrusion Miniature Cone Penetration Test System for Transportation Applications
The electronic cone penetrometer is a popular in situ investigation tool for site characterization. This research report describes the application of this proven concept of the cone penetration test (CPT) to highway design and construction control by miniaturization. A miniature cone penetrometer with a projected cone are of cm square has been developed and implemented in a Continuous Intrusion Miniature Cone Penetration Test system (CIMCPT). This novel device may be used for rapid, accurate and economical characterization of sites and to determine engineering soil parameters needed in the design of pavements, embankments and earth structures. The miniature cone penetration test (MCPT) and the miniature piezocone penetration test (MPCPT) give finer details compared to the standard 10 cm square cross-sectional area 'reference' cone penetrometer. This makes CIMCPT attractive for subgrade characerization, quality control assessment, compaction control of embankment, and assessment of ground improvement effectiveness for transportation infrastructure.
