Abstract
:
The results of 19 pressuremeter tests (PMTs) at 6 locations, and those of static cone penetration tests (CPTs) at 7 locations in the clayey parts of Obhor Sabkha are presented. Comparison of the results of these PMTs and CPTs with those of field vane shear tests (FVTs) and Mackintosh probing shows that they are equally suitable for site investigation in acl;Jyey , sabkha. Based on the results obtained so far, tentative correlations are I proposed between the different design parameters obtained from these in r situ tests. Calculations show that for equal loads and footing sizes for light structures, settlements based on CPT or PMT parameters are generally smaller than those based on consolidation test results.
