An approach to derive strength parameters of residual soils from DMT results

Residual soils show a specific mechanical behaviour classified as on-conventional when compared with sedimentary transported soils, since the presence of a cemented matrix plays an important role on their strength and stiffness. Moreover, suction is frequent in natural profiles, which in residual so...
