A New Non-Destructive TDR System Combined with a Piezoelectric Stack for Measuring Properties of Geomaterials

Dry density and water content are two important factors affecting the degree of soil compaction. Conventional methods such as the sand cone test and the plate load test are used to measure such properties for evaluating the degree of compaction and the stiffness of soil in the field. However, these...
