Influence of surcharge on cone penetration test results and the inspection of various approaches for capturing its effect: a case study
Abstract Studies in recent decades demonstrate the significant effect of stress configuration (e.g., vertical stress and lateral confinement) on the shear strength or, in this study, the cone penetration test (CPT) results. Addition of a surcharge over the ground changes the stress condition, and co...
