    A penetrometer is also used in longer professional cricket matches, to measure how the pitch is holding up over the course of a multi-day match. British horse racing courses have been required, since 2009, to report the readings obtained using a penetrometer, [ 1 ] on each day of a race meeting.

    Symbol used in drawings Simplified version of a cone penetrometer. The cone penetration or cone penetrometer test (CPT) is a method used to determine the geotechnical engineering properties of soils and delineating soil stratigraphy. It was initially developed in the 1950s at the Dutch Laboratory for Soil Mechanics in Delft to investigate soft ...
