Development and Evolution of Key Industry Dewatering Tests (HBT, Cone, RDT, GDT) and Their Accuracy in Predicting Full Scale Results
Publication: Geo-Frontiers 2011: Advances in Geotechnical Engineering
Abstract
This paper will describe the evolution of key industry dewatering tests (Cone, HBT, RDT, and GDT) and their accuracy in predicting full scale results. Geotextile containers for dewatering applications have proven both reliable and efficient. As the use of geotextile containers becomes more prevalent and the overall knowledge of the technology advances, so too do the methods of testing to predict the suitability and efficiency for a specific application. Both bench testing and small scale field testing have evolved.
