Table Form of DCP Test ERA

The document summarizes the results of a dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) test conducted on a road construction project. DCP tests involve repeatedly hammering a cone into the ground to measure penetration resistance as an indicator of soil strength and compaction. The summary includes chainages tested, number of blows to reach depths, penetration per blow, and corresponding California Bearing Ratio (CBR) values. Graphs are provided to show DCP test results and the relationship between penetration and CBR. The document records data from field DCP testing to evaluate the strength and compaction of soils along the road project.

Formula used to calculate the CBR is Log10(CBR) = 2.48-1.057Log10(mm/blow), therefore


CBR =10^(2.48-(1.057*log(mm/blow))). Graphical solution is
also possible.
