Abstract

Despite the popularity of the Cone Penetration Test, uncertainty remains regarding the stress level dependence of q_c in a sand of constant relative density, the effect of the mineralogy and the effect of saturation. This paper provides greater clarity on these effects by presenting results from a large series of drained cone penetration tests performed under controlled conditions in a laboratory pressure chamber. The experiments involve dry and fully saturated silica and carbonate sands placed at a number of relative densities (D_r ) and tested at different stress levels and overconsolidation ratios. The observations are compared with existing relationships proposed between q_c and D_r and highlight the approximate nature of such relationships.
