I just remembered anotherthing: * What are you looking for? is it a modulus? if that is the case, the range of values we have obtained from various site ranged between 650 and 1500 kg/cm2. The 650 value was obtained in marly formations (U.C ~ 50 to 100 kg/cm2)

I would like to share some of my experience with the pressuremeter on similar sites and hope that it will be of benefit to you: 1. In terms of strength, you could obtain a pressuremeter with an adequate probe to provide you in the neighborhood of 100 bars. 2. The major problem you will face...

I had a very similar problem but in our case the intended cut was suppose to be between 21 and 26m high. Access was very poor as the terrain was pretty much virgin, it was tough enough to walk. Anyway we managed to get a rig to the location (don't ask how). I have the following to share with...

I believe you will have a hard time finding such a correlation as you do not learn much once you hit refusal even if you go to 100 blows. However, if you are looking for C and Phi values in rock check Hoek and Bray (Rock Slope Engineering) and Thomlinson. As ageneral guide, I have rarely seen...

I had a somewhat similar project where the fill was marine sand plus miscellaneous fill. The owner had claimed that he had treated the ground both through vibro and dynamic compaction yet we found evidence at the site to the contrary. My only recourse was to go in with a thourough soil...
