Centrifuge Modeling of Cone Penetration Testing in Layered Soil
The effect of soil interlayering on the measured cone penetration resistance was examined in a layered soil model tested on a 9-m radius centrifuge. The soil profile consisted of a layer of sand between overlying and underlying layers of low plasticity clayey silt. The sand layer thickness varied from 0 to 240 mm (model scale) along the length of the model. The sand was loose with a relative density of 44% on one side of the model, and dense with a relative density of 88% on the other side. The clayey silt had a plasticity index (PI) of 6 and over-consolidation ratio (OCR) of about 1.5. Multiple cone penetration soundings were performed along the width and length of the model using cone penetrometers with diameters of 4, 6, and 10 mm. The model construction procedure, data processing, and cone penetration testing results are described.
