Abstract
This study focuses on utilizing cone penetrometer models to determine strength (resistance) of sandy soil and also assessment how the relative density and the angle of friction effects on the measured cone penetration resistance in sandy soil. Simple empirical equations are used also to determine the cone penetration resistance components such as the sleeve resistance and the tip resistance. Simple comparison is performed between the measured and calculated soil strength and well agreement is noticed between them.
期刊介绍:
Scientific Review Engineering and Environmental Sciences [Przegląd Naukowy Inżynieria i Kształtowanie Środowiska] covers broad area of knowledge and practice on fields such as: sustainable development, landscaping of non-urbanized lands, environmental engineering, construction projects engineering land management, protection and land reclamation, environmental impact of investments, ecology, hydrology and water management, ground-water monitoring and restoration, geotechnical engineering, meteorology and connecting subjects. Authors are welcome to submit theoretical and practice-oriented papers containing detailed case studies within above mentioned disciplines. However, theoretical papers should contain part with practical application of the theory presented. Papers (in Polish or English languages) are accepted for publication after obtaining positive opinions of two reviewers. Papers published elsewhere are not accepted.
