Evaluation of jetting insertion for the self-boring pressuremeter

Abstract: The primary objectives of the self-boring pressuremeter (SPBM) test are to measure, in situ, the horizontal stress and the stress-strain characteristics of soils and soft rocks. This cylindrical probe tunnels itself into the ground with a minimum disturbance. Conventionally, the advance has been performed using a cutter system housed inside a cutting shoe. Although proven effective, this method is slow and cumbersome. In response to these drawbacks, a jetting insertion method was introduced and designed to all… Show more
