DOI: 10.1007/s12205-019-1448-5
Abstract: The prebored pressuremeter (PBP) test results depend on the quality of borehole, including its diameter, verticality, effectiveness of cleaning, and degree of wall disturbance. The true elastic modulus cannot be reasonably determined using the cavity… read more here.
