Empirical correlation between uncorrected standard penetration resistance (N) and shear wave velocity (VS) for Kathmandu Valley, Nepal

The indirect method of estimation of VS is more important as geophysical tests associated with direct determination of VS are not feasible in developing countries like Nepal; on the contrary, standard penetration resistance (SPT-N) measurement is practised widely for building constructions even in r...
