Cone penetration tests are a good option for in situ tests in case of soft, fine‐grained soils. Thus, they are often used for subsoil investigations in the Salzburger Becken, which mainly consists of silty, fine‐sandy sediments. Unfortunately, empirical correlations for the determination of soil parameters from cone penetration tests in case of silty, fine‐sandy soils are very rare in literature....
Piezocone penetration tests (CPTu tests) allow continuous measurements of the tip resistance, the sleeve friction and the pore water pressure over depth. Furthermore, they minimize the required time as well as costs for a soil characterization. Due to the difficulty related to undisturbed sample recovery of soils (i.e. of weak silty fine‐grained sediments) for laboratory testing, in situ investigations...
