Soil small strain parameters derived from wave velocity measurements
Tomasz SZCZEPAŃSKI

Small-strain parameters of soil play an important role in modern civil engineering. It is common knowledge that the mechanical behaviour of soils is strain dependent. Engineering geologists should be aware of available test methods, both in-situ and laboratory, meeting the present day requirements in terms of the quality and adequacy of results. On the other hand, drawbacks and limitations of a particular solution force to combine different approaches. This article briefly describes two methods of determining the shear modulus of soil by means of seismic wave velocity measurement.

Keywords: small strain, soil stiffness, surface seismicity, bender elements
