| Description | The capability of in situ testing techniques to assess the mechanical properties of granular soils is here reviewed after a brief qualitative picture of the mechanical soil behaviour. Particular attention is paid to recent innovations and the capabilities of in situ testing methods to assess the relative density, stiffness and secant angle of shear resistance of coarse grained soils. In particular, the advantages and limitations of penetration, dilatometer, pressuremeter and seismic tests are critically reviewed. Book Name: Geotechnical Hazards |
