- Abstract
1. The specific resistance of soil not only beneath the cone of the penetrometer but also against the friction couple should be used to define the prediction of the strength and deformation characteristics of silty-clayey soils more precisely from static-penetration data, and the type of clayey soils should also be considered for the strength characteristics. 2. For penetrometers equipped with radiation-logging apparatus, it is possible to evaluate mechanical characteristics of soils under field conditions, using the soil's density in addition to the penetration parameters q and f. 3. In developing regional statistical relationships, it should be remembered that the extent to which q and f influence ϕ. c, and E is determined largely by what types of soil the statistical sample represents and in what range the physical indicators of its conditions vary. 4. To define the recommendations of Construction Rule and Regulation 1.02.07-87 more precisely, it is expedient to use resultant correlation relationships (6)-(8) to evaluate ϕ, c, and E from static-penetration data for the genetic groups of quartenary deposits investigated.
