Exploration of Determining the Bearing Capacity of Calcareous Concretion Soil with Static Cone Penetration

Abstract:

Cohesive soil containing calcareous nodule in Huaibei plain is a kind of regional special soil, which has a unique material composition and structure. The paper discusses the types and distribution of calcareous concretion in soil, and the influence on the strength of soil and the engineering property. Through a lot of the load test and the corresponding static cone penetration test, analyzing the correlation between them.Then linear regression equation between and is established. Finally, it is show that linear regression effect is remarkable, and the equation can be reference for the local practical engineering
