Description
This penetrometer is used to determine a penetration resistance relationship with the standard penetration resistance of virgin soils. As with all field tools used in foundation evaluations, this method should never be used as the sole means for determining foundation conditions. It should be used in conjunction with previously established field and laboratory data, wich as the split-spoon standard penetration test, density, shear stength or consolidation data.
The H-4202 set includes; (1) standard hammer assembly (H-4202.1), (1) heat-treated 45° cone penetrometer point with a 1 ft. adapter rod (H-4202.3), (4) 2.5 ft. E drill rod extensions (H-4202.225), (1) auger head (H-4202.6), (1) auger T-handle (H-4202.4), (4) 36″ auger extensions (H-4202.5).
The 4202 DCP test set is also available with a H-4202.1A sleeved drive hammer for easier and safer operation.
