2. Standard penetration test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_penetration_test

   SPT results are in-situ field measurements and are often the only test results available. As such, the use of correlations has become common practice in many countries. One approximate relationship between SPT N-value, relative density, and bulk density for coarse-grained material can be seen in the table below.

3. Geotechnical investigation - Wikipedia

   A USBR soil scientist advances a Giddings Probe direct push soil sampler.. Geotechnical investigations are performed by geotechnical engineers or engineering geologists to obtain information on the physical properties of soil earthworks and foundations for proposed structures and for repair of distress to earthworks and structures caused by subsurface conditions; this type of investigation is ...

4. Cone penetration test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone_penetration_test

   The result of a cone penetration test: resistance and friction on the left, friction ratio (%) on the right. The early applications of CPT mainly determined the logistics of soil geotechnical property of bearing capacity. The original cone penetrometers involved simple mechanical measurements of the total penetration resistance to pushing a ...

6. Dilatancy (granular material) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilatancy_(granular_material)

   The relationship between dilation and internal friction is typically illustrated by the sawtooth model of dilatancy where the angle of dilation is analogous to the angle made by the teeth to the horizontal. Such a model can be used to infer that the observed friction angle is equal to the dilation angle plus the friction angle for zero dilation.

   The angle of internal friction is thus closely related to the maximum stable slope angle, often called the angle of repose. But in addition to friction, soil derives significant shear resistance from interlocking of grains. If the grains are densely packed, the grains tend to spread apart from each other as they are subject to shear strain.

   Editor's note: Kent State lost to Buffalo 43-7 on Tuesday night to finish the season 0-12. Running back Jaylen Thomas’ 23-yard touchdown run with 2:28 left in the third quarter put the finishing ...

9. Slope stability analysis - Wikipedia

   Both the friction angle and cohesion can be considered for each slice. In the general case of the method of slices, the forces acting on a slice are shown in the figure below. The normal ( E r , E l {\displaystyle E_{r},E_{l}} ) and shear ( S r , S l {\displaystyle S_{r},S_{l}} ) forces between adjacent slices constrain each slice and make the ...
