Question
Q6: In a deposit of a NC dry sand a cone penetration test was conducted. The following are the
results:
Depth (m)
Cone resistance, q. (MN/m²)
1.5
2.06
4.23
4.5
6.01
8.18
7.5
9.97
12.42
Assuming that the unit weigh of the sand is 15.5 kN/m³, estimate the friction angle and relative density
at each depth. Assume relatively compressible sand with Q. = 1.
