Abstract
In this study, focus is given on a selected project site. This site is located at Jadavpur University, Saltlake Campus, area situated in Kolkata city of India. The subject site comprises building structures with isolated footing. The soil investigation was carried out by two different approaches i.e., cone penetration test (CPT), and Marchetti Flat Dilatometer Test (DMT). The study describes a comparative study of undrained cohesion (Cu), angle of internal friction (Φ), constrain modulus (M) measured from CPT and DMT. Apart from that settlement analysis also been done for two different sizes of foundation e.g. (3M X 1M), (4M X 1M) by DMT Settlement software and PLAXIS2D. For providing the subsoil model for the investigation area, all the DMT and CPT results were compared with each other
