Significance and Use4.1 Environmental site characterization projects almost al-ways require information regarding subsurface soil stratigra-phy and hydraulic parameters related to groundwater flow rateand direction. Soil stratigraphy often is determined by variousdrilling procedures and in

The electronic piezocone penetrometer test isanother means of determining soil stratigraphy that may befaster, less expensive, and provide greater resolution of the soilunits than conventional drilling and sampling methods. Forenvironmental site charact

49、erization applications, the electronicpiezocone also has the additional advantage of not generatingcontaminated cuttings that may present other disposal prob-lems (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10). Investigators may obtain soilsamples from adjacent borings for correlation purposes, butprior information or experience in the same area may precludethe need for borings (11). Most cone penetrometer rigs areequipped with direct push soil samplers (Guide D6282/D6282M) that can be used to confirm soil types.4.2 The ele
