Hi. I'm searching books or web pages about SPT on lapilli soils an its correlations. I often job in these soils. The blow count is always very low and the correlation is very difficultous. The lapillis have low density (0,9 kg/m3)and they are very fragile.
Thanks[cry]
Thanks Ron, but the problem, I know the limitations about PLT and I know don't exist magic equations but I want know the different equations exist. For example, the SPT, it correlation is very complicate but there are numerous equations of diferents autors. Each Geotechnical Engineer uses an...
I agree with bigh and focht3 about PLT. [peace] But I have seen other geotechnical reports, where the qu is divide by a SF. I think that isn't correct operation. [thumbsdown]I think the equation Terzaghi and Peck (1.967), is based on low number datas. So, I ask, Is there other method more...
Hi! I'm searching information about settlements of load plate test and real shallow foundation relationship. I have found the equation Terzaghi and Peck (1.967) but I think this equation isn't accurate. I haven't found other equation.
Anybody can help me?[bigears]
