Appendix a Pressuremeter Test Interpretation

Nonlinear modeling of soil deformation modulus through LGP-based interpretation of pressuremeter test results

Soil deformation modulus is an essential parameter for the analysis of behavior of substructures. Despite its importance, little attention is paid to developing empirical models for predicting the deformation moduli obtained from the field tests. To cope with this issue, this paper presents the development of a new prediction model for the pressuremeter soil deformation modulus utilizing a line...
