28、 EN ISO 17892-6:2017BS EN ISO 17892-6:2017Geotechnical investigation and testing Laboratory testing of soil Part 6: Fall cone test1 ScopeThis document specifies a method of undrained strength index testing of both undisturbed and remoulded specimens of fine grained soils by the fall cone method.This
29、 document is applicable to the laboratory estimation of undrained shear strength of a soil test specimen within the scope of geotechnical investigations.In the fall cone test, a cone is allowed to fall with its tip towards a soil specimen, and the resulting penetration of the cone into the soil is m
30、easured. The penetration values are used to estimate the undrained shear strength. The fall cone test produces a complex shear in the test specimen, and does not represent either a vertical triaxial compression or a horizontal shear test. However, this index test may be correlated to some estimate o
31、f undrained shear strength determined in the laboratory by other test methods.As the test is performed on a small laboratory specimen, the result may not agree with laboratory tests on larger specimens. In addition, the test specimen may not be fully representative of the soil in its natural state i
32、n the field; for example, the test specimen may not have fissures present in situ at a larger spacing than the specimen size.Therefore, for the above reasons, the test can be regarded as an estimation of undrained shear strength, rather than a true measurement of it.The ratio of the remoulded shear
33、strength to the undisturbed shear strength may be used to estimate the sensitivity of a soil specimen. Time-dependent measurement of the shear strength may be used to assess the thixotropic regain of strength of a remoulded soil specimen.NOTE This document fulfils the requirements of the strength in

40、and adjusted so that the tip of the cone just touches the surface of the specimen before the cone is released.The cone apparatus shall be equipped with a method of measuring the penetration across the range of at least 4 mm to 20 mm penetration. Methods include a linear scale alongside the shaft, or
41、 a circular dial with a pointer needle or an electronic transducer, in both cases bearing on the upper end of the shaft. If the scale is designed for manual reading, it shall be marked in increments of 1 mm or better.4.2 Fall conesA set of cones with cone angles of 30 or 60 and masses (i.e. mass of
42、cone plus shaft) covering a range of possible shear strengths shall be used. Typical examples of suitable fall cones are given on Table 1. There is limited experience or validation of cones of alternative configuration, for example, heavier than 400 g. Alternate cones should be used with caution.Tab
