Cone Penetrometer Method Automatic
Cone Penetrometer Automatic
Cone Penetrometer Method :
IS: 2720 (Part 5) – 1985
The test is based on the relationship between moisture content and the penetration of the cone into the soil sample. The moisture content at a given depth of penetration of the cone is taken as the liquid limit. As an inferential test, empirical correlations have been developed to assess the shear strength of soils at liquid limit.
Reduces operator error
Applicable to a wide range of soils
Gives reproducible test results
Provides direct measurement of penetration
