Correlation between cone penetration resistance and standard penetration in parts of the coastal plain sands, Southeastern Nigeria

Edet, A. E. / Oden, M. I. / Efretuei, O. E.

Abstract Test results using the cone and standard penetrometers carried out in parts of the Coastal Plain Sands were correlated by graphical means. Results indicate that the cone resistance $ q_{c} $, increases with increasing standard penetration, N, giving a positive slope on a normal arithmetic plot. The least square equation relating both parameters is in the form y=mx. The $ q_{c} $ and N values are then used as the basis for rating the engineering characteristics of the Coastal Plain Sands.
