Abstract

The cone penetration test (CPT) for loess-like silty clay soil in western Henan province was done to obtain the tip resistance and sleeve friction. Then, the relationship of CPT and physico-mechanical parameters of loess-like silty clay soil was analysis. At last, the empirical model for physico-mechanical parameters of loess-like silty clay soil in western Henan province was established. The physico-mechanical parameters of loess-like silty clay in western Henan province could be calculated by sing the empirical model from CPT, including water content, void ratio, plasticity index and compressibility coefficient. The results provide the foundation for reliability analysis of parameters of loess-like silty clay soil in geotechnical investigation, design and construction.
