The Piezocone


Sinkholes          Seismic



The Piezocone, like the SPT, has an A.S.T.M. standard


The Logic . . .

. . . the results, tabular soils information . .

. . . plus detailed colorful graphics

. . . in a variety of presentations

. . . with the Cross Section being one of the most useful,

. . . and more, like static pore pressure dissipations for determining head losses . .

. . . and for the calculation of Ch and kh


If SINKHOLES are a part of your business, they can pose a SERIOUS investigative problem!!

. . . the Piezocone, the very best methodology for determining sinkhole indicators,

We also offer our Seismic Piezocone for obtaining wave velocity information relating to . . .

Sites where Seismic activity is a concern

Dynamic Foundations

 Soil Liquefaction


Remember the International Building Code (I.B.C.) has seismic requirements . . .

A seismic test begins with a time-of-arrival graph . . .


. . . then summarized in a graph of all wave arrival times . .

. . . resulting in a shear / compression wave velocity report including small strain shear modulus . .
