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
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
