SUMMARY:Stuttgarter Geotechnik-Seminar 1
DESCRIPTION:Applications of Dilatometer & Seismic Dilatometer in Geotechnic
 al Engineering\n\nThe aim of the presentation is to describe the Flat Dilat
 ometer equipment (DMT), its working principle and test procedure. The inter
 pretation steps will be shown starting from the field readings up to the in
 terpreted geotechnical parameters. Comparisons of the results will be shown
  with other investigation tools in well documented research test sites. The
  Seismic Dilatometer (SDMT) will also be described. It is a seismic add-on 
 module for measuring the shear wave velocity VS. The presentation will illu
 strate the main applications for which this test is commonly performed, inc
 luding:  • Settlement predictions (comparisons of DMT-predicted with measur
 ed settlements) • Moduli before / after soil improvement • Estimation of th
 e liquefaction resistance CRR • Slip surface detection • Kh behind diaphrag
 m walls from MDMT • Moduli in roads subgrade • P-y curves for laterally loa
 ded piles • FEM input parameters from DMT results (ex PLAXIS) • Combining t
 he low-strain shear modulus G0 with the working strain modulus MDMT to esti
 mate the G-Gamma decay curves  The presentation will also include the descr
 iption of the most recent developments, including the Medusa DMT and the Se
 afloor DMT system for offshore investigations.\n\nNext meetings.
