A dynamic cone penetrometer is used to determine underlying soil strength by measuring the penetration of the device into the soil after each hammer blows. Dynamic Cone Penetration Test Test Overview The Dynamic Cone Penetration Test provides a measure of a material's in-situ resistance to penetration. The test is performed by driving a metal cone into the ground by repeated striking it with a 17.6 Ib (8 Kg)weight dropped from a distance of 2.26 feet (575 mm). The penetration of the cone is measured after each blow andis recorded to provide a continuous measure of shearing resistance up to 5 feet below the ground surface. Test results can be correlated to California Bearing Ratios, in-situ density, resilient modulus, and bearing capacity.
