The DMT is a simple and efficient test for estimating a number of soil engineering properties, and may also be used as an extremely useful logging device since it allows closely space vertical test point. Use of the DMT in a wide range of earth materials providing reasonable test results. It appears that by using different testing procedures, it is possihle to conduct both total stress and pore pressure dissipation tests using the DMT. The results of these tests are useful for practical problems such as estimating effective stress axial pile capacity and designs involving horizontal drainage.

  • Dilatometro Marchetti molto interessante per effettuare prove DMT (dilatometriche).

    Complimenti agli operatori che presentano una professionalità nel gestire la prova. Sarebbe stato interessante osservare lo strumeneto nella sua funzionalità e, osservare la (scarpa) nel video. Magari per far capire meglio (a chi non sà) come sia fatta la scarpa (punta).

    Complimenti al gruppo Soiltest.
