Abstract:ABSTRACT. The geotechnical description of sandy sediments of the surf zone was done in two ways: directly, through standard geotechnical testing proposed by ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) and indirectly, through electrical resistivity measurements. The geotechnical property chosen for the description of the sediment was porosity, due to its influence in a wide range of soil properties. The indirect estimate of porosity through resistivity measurements was based on Archie’s equation. However,… Show more
