The Pagani TG63-150 is the most popular CPTu machine in the world having sold over 1000 machines in 86 different countries. Developed over the last 30 years, Pagani Geotechnical have pioneered small relatively lightweight (1100kg) tracked CPTu rigs that provide an unmatched pushing testing force of 16tons due to their unique mast with ...

In the Cone Penetration Test (CPT), a cone on the end of a series of rods is pushed into the ground at a constant rate and continuous measurements are made of the resistance to penetration of the cone and of a surface sleeve. Figure 2 illustrates the main terminology regarding cone penetrometers.

A cone penetration test with pore water pressure measurement, or CPTU, is a static penetration test with water pressure measurement. The main purpose of CPT (CPTU) testing is to identify subsurface conditions: classify soil, detect layers and measure strength, determine deformation characteristics and the permeability of foundation soils.

The system also acquires the u value (hydrostatic pore pressure), Tilt (the angle of the set of rods) and the dissipation time (time measured between measurement of the overpressure obtained during the driving stage and the pressure measured when releasing the driving pressure).

rigs for CPTu and SCPTu compatible with our CPT Kit. Our new CPTu and SCPTu equipment comes with an electrical cone that contains temperature-compensated strain gauge transducers that measure the cone resistance as well as the sleeve friction and a pressure transducer. The kit also includes the data acquisition system with all the necessary

In the Cone Penetration Test (CPT), a cone on the end of a series of rods is pushed into the ground at a constant rate of 2 cm /sec. and continuous or intermittent measurements are made of the resistance to penetration of the cone.

The aim of research using static cone penetration CPT is to determine the resistance of soft rock during the insertion of the cone and friction on the sleeve. The test involves forcing of the conical penetrometer vertically into the ground using the column of rods.
