      <title>CORRELATING THE SPT N VALUE WITH CHALK GRADE FOR SOME ZONES OF THE UPPER CHALK</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/36673</link>
      <description><![CDATA[In this note the author examines the correlation between SPT n value and observed chalk grade for some upper chalk zones, using data from two large site investigations in Hampshire, referring only to chalk above the ground water table. The chalk as exposed in test pits was graded, and these grades compared with SPT in values recorded in shell and auger boreholes adjacent to the test pits. The chalk was graded using the classification system of Ward et al and Wakeling. It is concluded that different areas of chalk outcrop have different correlations between n value and chalk grade, and that for the upper chalk studied, it is not easy to interpret chalk grade directly from the n values. The importance of visual observations is emphasised, together with the need to correlate chalk grade with n value. /TRRL/]]></description>

      <title>ON STABILIZATION CHARACTERISTICS OF SAND COMPACTION PILES</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/140978</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The stabilization characteristics of the vibratory sand compaction pile method, popularly being adopted in Japan for stabilization of soft soil, as applied to cohesionless subsoils, have been examined in the aspect of their practical applications.  Referring to numerous examples of standard penetration tests carried out before and after treatment to check the stabilization effect in the field, the influences of five factors related to cohesionless subsoil compaction, depth from ground level, sand/gravel content, n-value of original ground, sand pile area ratio and vibrator size, on the n-value of treated ground have been investigated.]]></description>
