Estimation of undrained shear strength of fine grained soils from cone penetration resistance

Estimation of undrained shear strength of fine grained soils from cone penetration resistance

Abstract Background Many previous authors have proposed empirical methods for the evaluation of undrained shear strength S u of soft to stiff saturated cohesive soils from CPT cone resistance q c  data. Published works are rare on this topic for the cases of unsaturated and overconsolidated clays an...
