• Very common test worldwide• 1902 - Colonel Gow of Raymond Pile
Co.• Split-barrel sample driven in borehole.• Conducted on 2½ to 5 ft depth intervals• ASTM D1586 guidelines• Drop Hammer (140 lbs falling 30 inches)• 3 or 4 increments of 6 inches each
– Three (3) Increments: Sum of last two increments = “SPT N value" (blows/ft)
– Four (4) Increments: Sum of middle two increments = “SPT N value" (blows/ft)
• Correlations available with all types of soil engineering properties
• Disturbed Soil Samples Collected

STANDARD PENETRATION TEST (SPT)Factors Affecting SPT (after Kulhawy & Mayne, 1990 & Table 8. FHWA IF-02-034 )
Cause Effects Influence on N Value
Inadequate Cleaning of Borehole SPT not made in insitu soil, soil trapped, recovery reduced Increases
Failure to Maintain Adequate Head in Borehole Bottom of borehole may become quick Decreases
Careless Measure of Drop Hammer Energy varies Increases
Hammer Weight Inaccurate Hammer Energy varies Inc. or Dec.
Hammer Strikes Drill Rod Collar Eccentrically Hammer Energy reduced Increases
Lack of Hammer Free (ungreased sleeves, stiff rope, more than 2 turns on cathead, incomplete release of drop, etc.) Hammer Energy reduced Increases
Sampler Driven Above Bottom of Casing Sampler driven in disturbed soil Inc. Greatly
Careless Blow Count Recording Inaccurate Results Inc. or Dec.
Use of Non-Standard Sampler Correlations with Std. Sampler Invalid Inc. or Dec.
Coarse Gravel or Cobbles in soil Sampler becomes clogged or impeded Increases
Use of Bent Drill Rods Inhibited transfer of energy to sampler Increases

CIVE.4850 CAPSTONE DESIGNModule 3 – Geotechnical Engineering
CARE & PRESERVATION OF SOIL SAMPLES• Mark and Log samples upon
retrieval (ID, type, number, depth, recovery, soil, moisture).
• Place jar samples in wood or cardboard box.
• Should be protected from extreme conditions (heat, freezing, drying).
• Sealed to minimize moisture loss.• Packed and protected against
excessive vibrations and shock.

LATERAL EARTH PRESSURESCOULOMB OR RANKINE REVIEW
Rankine “State of Stress” Theory:• Does not account for wall friction.• Requires vertical wall.• Conservative relative to other
methods.• Fixed plane of failure.• Favored by the transportation
agencies (AASHTO and FHWA) . See AASHTO Standard Specifications for Highway Bridges.
Coulomb “Wedge”Theory:• Accounts for wall friction.• Unique failure angle for each design.• Used by National Masonry Concrete
Association (NCMA) & USACE.• Inaccurate passive earth pressures
w/large wall angles or friction angle (particularly for ' > ' /2) .
• Decreased accuracy w/ depth.• Calculates lower active earth
pressure than Rankine for level backslope.

• Neglected in Stability Calculations• Unless base of the wall extends below the depth of
maximum scour, freeze-thaw, or other disturbances• Neglected is soil providing passive resistance
is, or is likely to become, soft, loose, or disturbed, or if contact between the soil and wall is not tight.

• Using Boring B-2 (and assuming that elevations begin at the ground surface for the existing bridge), you will do the following:
• Determine factored bearing capacity (qR)• Compute applied vertical stress (qo) based on 1
inch of settlement.
