CPT South Australia offers Cone Penetration Testing (CPT) services in South Australia and further afield.
We operate a Geomil CPT system and use second generation digital 10cm2 compression and subtraction cones (CPTu) with qc (tip resistance) to 100 MPa, fs (sleeve friction) 2-6 MPa, u2 (pore pressure) to 5 MPa and inclination to 20°.
Our digital cones are well suited for working in electrically noisy environments eg adjacent to high voltage transmission lines, due to the digital signal processing in the cone, the use of RS485 wiring configuration, twisted pair wires and half-duplex communication between the cone and receiving computer.
We perform CPT tests according AS1289.6.5.1 – 1999. “Soil strength and consolidation tests – Determination of the static cone penetration resistance of a soil – Field test using a mechanical and electrical cone or friction-cone penetrometer” and with reference to ISO 22476-1:2012 “Geotechnical investigation and testing – Field testing Part 1: Electrical cone piezocone penetration test".
Sounding data is stored in Geroc CORE-GS software and plots are generated from CPT Add-in.
Our deliverable for each CPT sounding are;
