Hey Guys,

I was just wondering if you could help clear the following up for me.

What are the similar qualities of soils that can be found using EFCP and a hand auger/DCP. I know you can find moisture levels with both, but can the shear and compressive strength of a sample be found with the EFCP system?? and how is it displayed?

Thanks
