In-situ testing techniques applied to embankments over soft organic soils
The investigation of a test fill over organic soils has been carried out using three in-situ testing techniques. One-half of the fill area is serviced by wick drains while the other half remains in a natural state. Piezometer cone penetration tests, dilatometer tests and field vane tests were used t...
