Cone Penetrating Testing: In Geotechnical Practice - Tom Lunne. / Guide to Cone Penetration Testing This guide is a supplement and update to the book 'CPT in Geotechnical Practice' by Lunne, Robertson and Powell (1997). It was found that Updated and improved static design equations recently proposed in the literature have not yet been implemented in practice. This guide is a supplement and update to the book 'CPT in Geotechnical Practice' by Lunne, Robertson and Powell (1997). Coduto uses design-oriented approach that addresses geotechnical, structural, and construction aspects of foundation engineering to explore practical methods of designing structural foundations, while emphasizing and explaining how and why foundations behave the way Discussions of recent advances in foundation engineering, including Statnamic testing, load and resistance factor design (LRFD), and applications of the cone penetration test (CPT). In-situ penetration tests have been widely used in geotechnical and foundation engineering for site investigation in support of analysis and design. There has been considerable debate in the geotechnical press about the benefits and drawbacks of Eurocode compliance, but one thing is clear- the Eurocodes are here to stay. Interviews with INDOT geotechnical engineers and private geotechnical consultants frequently involved in INDOT's deep foundation projects provided information on the methods and software currently employed.
