Figure 12.
The two-panel labelled A and B depicts penetration in metres on the vertical axis. Panel A shows cone resistance q c in megapascal for Site A with curves labelled C P T A 1, C P T A 2, and C P T A 3, along with a global curve labelled q c global D r equals 0.84. A horizontal line separates the Shallow zone, Transition zone, and Deep zone. Panel B shows relative density D r versus penetration with curves and dashed vertical reference lines labelled N D tests and an arrow indicating D r deep. Both panels show variation with depth and increasing values in deeper zones.CPT interpretation at Site B using 10 cm² cone: (a) CPT-B1: measured qc compared with qc.global; shallow Dr ≈ 0.68, (b) CPT-B2: measured qc compared with qc.global; shallow Dr ≈ 0.48, and (c) corresponding Dr.deep profiles and indicative corrected shallow Dr values
