Evaluation of correlation between parameters from CPTU and DMT tests and soil type behavior chart
Journal Title: Annals of Warsaw University of Life Sciences – SGGW. Land Reclamation - Year 2018, Vol 50, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper presents the correlation of soil parameters obtained from the dilatometer of the Marchetti (DMT) and the cone penetration tests (CPT). The data for the development of these correlations come from four experimental sites of the Department of Geotechnical Engineering of the Warsaw University of Life Sciences – SGGW: test embankment in Antoniny, and the Koszyce and Nielisz water dams, Stegna test site, WULS- -SGGW Campus. Additionally, the relationship between the soil behavior type classification index (Ic) from the Cone Penetration Test (CPT) and the material index (ID) from the dilatometer test (DMT) based on the Robertson method, modified in this paper, is presented. Finally, a new soil behavior type classification chart was presented, allowing to determine not only the type and condition of the soil, but also the stress history (OCR).

A stress history and strain dependent stiffness of overconsolidated cohesive soil
In the last three decades an interest has grown in prediction of soil stiffness. This is mainly due to enlightened nonlinearity of constitutive characteristic in small and intermediate range of strain. In the last decade...
Linkage of “Lakes Zwenkau-Cospuden” as one of the elements of land reclamation after the open-cast mines and its future importance for the development of the region
The open-cast mine “Böhlen”, closed in 1921, in 1969 was transformed into “Zwenkau”(“Zw”) open-cast mine. In the seventies, together with its smaller neighbouring mine “Cospuden”(“Cs”), became one of the greatest enterpr...
