Abstract:

The ODOT Office of Geotechnical

Engineering (OGE) currently uses

conventional drilling methods (e.g., hollow

stem auger, solid stem auger) to perform

subsurface investigations in soil. These

techniques have been used for decades and

have the advantage of a long track record of

experience and success within the state.

These methods are, however, timeconsuming

and expensive to perform, do not

provide continuous data with depth, and are

not well suited to some types of geologic and

environmental conditions. Over the last 20

years, cone penetration testing (CPT) has

been gaining acceptance in the U.S. and is

now often used as an alternative or

complementary procedure to conventional

drilling in the performance of subsurface

investigations. ODOT funded this project to

investigate how CPT technology might be

utilized to improve the quality and efficiency

of ODOT’s subsurface investigation

program.
