Use the SPT to Measure Dynamic Soil Properties?-Yes, But.! /

The author briefly reviews the factors important to the blowcount (N) values obtained from the standard penetration test (SPT), and describes the dynamics of the SPT in terms of wave transmission theory and measurements. The SPT appears to correlate well qualitatively with sand liquefaction potentia...
