Abstract

The purpose of this study is to compare the cementation effect on cone resistance and DMT indices and to evaluate the deformation characteristic of cemented sand using cone resistance and dilatometer modulus. Specimens of various relative densities with three different cementation levels are prepared in a large calibration chamber under different vertical stress levels. Test result shows that the cone resistance and dilatometer modulus underestimate the deformation modulus of cemented sand, since in situ penetration tests such as CPT and DMT damage the cementation bonds during penetration. By regression analysis, the constrained modulus of cemented sand is related with the cone resistance and the dilatometer modulus.
