A reliability-based analysis framework, accounting for uncertainty arising from the spatial variability of soil properties, has been validated controlled, well-instrumented slope failure an historic dyke in Netherlands. Using property statistics derived results laboratory and cone penetration test (CPT) data different layers at site, was analysed initial (i.e. operating) conditions, as well lat...

Many semi-empiric correlations have been developed to estimate geotechnical parameters based on Cone Penetration Test (CPT) data for various types of soils. This paper aims classify soil CPT with several and compare the results some these correlations. In this study, field laboratory test were carried out from two closely spaced locations in estuary area Muaro Baru, Padang city. The was used de...

The assessment of pile drivability is the premise successful installation, and completely weathered (CW) rock may bring risk refusal. This paper presents a case driving refusal that occurred in CW gneiss layer. physical mechanical properties are analyzed based on results laboratory test, cone penetration test (CPT), standard (SPT). By comparing with those from intact gneiss, layer this study wa...

This study examines the capability of the Relevance Vector Machine (RVM) and Multivariate Adaptive Regression Spline (MARS) for prediction of ultimate capacity of driven piles and drilled shafts. RVM is a sparse method for training generalized linear models, while MARS technique is basically an adaptive piece-wise regression approach. In this paper, pile capacity prediction models are developed...

Cable ploughing is an important technique for burying and protecting offshore cables. The ability to predict the required tow force plough performance essential allow vessel selection project programming. Existing models require calibration against full-scale field testing determine empirical parameters, a requirement that may hinder their use. In this study factors controlling resistance were ...

The cone penetration test (CPT) has been the de facto field exploration method in geotechnical engineering for decades. Variations of CPT can measure parameters seismic, environmental, and hydrological applications. Analyzing response often requires properties areas that have little or no data. Therefore, given limited data, it is critical to understand how accurately estimate soil at unsampled...

Abstract The continuous cone penetration test (CPT) measurements provide an advantageous liable rapid tool for stratification and soil behavior classification that can be employed in the sustainable design of infrastructures. However, CPT are often interpreted by geotechnical experts because involved complexities uncertainties. In this study, a novel type (SBT) model is developed to identify tr...

Road design is a complex, time-consuming, and very responsible process. To develop high-quality viable road project, it important to start with an accurate geological survey in order define the best layout. Moreover, geotechnical characterisation of foundation soils construction materials as well analysis assessment works are mandatory. Laboratory situ investigations complementary should be car...

In geotechnical engineering, in-situ tests, like standard penetration test (SPT) and cone (CPT), are essential to evaluate the underground conditions. SPT is a frequently used approach, while CPT considered one of best exploration apparatuses. However, there demand for correlation SPT-CPT that can be in design. This research aimed find relationships between test’s blow count (N) tip resistance ...
