Dynamic Cone Penetration Test

The Dynamic Cone Penetration Test (DCPT) is a type of test used to measure the strength of soil. The test involves driving a steel cone into the soil using a hammer and measuring the resistance of the soil to penetration. The test is typically used in construction to determine the soil’s load-bearing capacity and to assess its suitability for various construction applications. DCPT is often used in conjunction with other soil tests to ensure that the soil is suitable for the construction project. The test is particularly useful in areas where the soil conditions are not ideal, and the soil’s strength and stability are critical for the structural integrity of the project.
