COMPARISON OF THE RESULTS OF IN SITU AND LABORATORY TESTS ON COHESIVE SOILS

ESSAIS EN PLACE ET EN LABORATOIRE SUR SOLS COHERENTS COMPARAISON DES RESULTATS

An attempt is made to seek the relations existing between the point resistance determined by a static penetrometer, the limiting pressure obtained by a standard pressiometer, and the cohesion of fine soils determined in the laboratory. The authors indicate that there is no one to one relation between the cohesion determined in the laboratory on the one hand, and the limiting pressure and the point resistance on the other hand.
