DETERMINATION OF SOIL SHEAR MODULI AT DEPTHS BY IN-SITU VIBRATORY TECHNIQUES,

Abstract

The purpose of the report is to investigate the possibility of measuring propagated shear waves at depth from surface induced vibrations. The desired final product is the capability of determining the shear moduli of soil in a continous profile to depths approaching or exceeding 100 ft. (Author)
