This is the rig used for CPT at site Rig in position for testing
Rig setup
Augers were drilled into the ground After set up of the augers
Rig setup (Cont.)
• The probe was inserted into this machine to vacuum the filter and
saturate with water
• This process was run up to 2 hours and after finishing half an hour
to stabilize the system.
• Then the probe was transferred into a bucket full of water and
rubber was rolled down as far as possible
• With the rubber on the probe was set up with the extensions
• Then the probe was finally ready for the test
The analyzer
• 1 meter of extension tubes were added after one is pushed into the
ground
• As the machine kept penetrating after one by one extension tubes, data
• After 10 meters tip resistance was high and after 13 meters the rig could
not penetrate any deep and the reaction at the supports was too high to
Placing of sensors
