CPTu: Vertek's news on the value of pore pressure CPT data
Unlike conventional CPT cones, modern devices come with a special pore pressure sensor. Vertek analyzes the importance and practical application of the particular information on soil behavior in a brand new post!
In Vertek's new post, you may find out about pore pressure sensors equipped CPT cones - also known as piezocones - their components as well as the differences between conventional CPT and CPTu test procedures. Additionally, once suitable data is collected, useful information can be extracted on the soil's compressibility and permeability, as well as overall groundwater conditions, while correcting data against in-situ moisture and overburden stress effects is also possible with CPTu!
