Liquefaction Potential of Dams and Foundations. Report 2. Laboratory Standard Penetration Tests on Platte River Sand and Standard Concrete Sand
The Standard Penetration Test (SPT) is critically examined with respect to its ability to estimate relative density in situ. Six test specimens, 4 ft in diameter by 6 ft high, were constructed using Platte River sand and Standard Concrete sand. SPT's were performed, using field drilling equipment, on specimens under three overburden pressures and constructed to three relative densities. The results are presented as a family of curves correlating relative density with SPT N-values at the three overburden pressures. This research is an extension of a previous test series on Reid Bedford Model sand and Ottawa sand. The results from tests of the four sands are compared, and a statistical analysis is presented which produced an empirical equation relating relative density to overburden pressure, SPT N-value, and coefficient of uniformity. Comparisons are also made between this work and that of Gibbs and Holtz at the Bureau of Reclamation and Bazaraa at the University of Illinois. Conclusions are presented based on both series of tests. (Author)
