Abstract

The present paper aims to validate the applicability of a piezoball test equipped with pressure transducers at the probe’s tip, middle, and equator faces to estimate the coefficient consolidation behavior of a soft soil deposit. The proposals of Mahmoodzadeh et al. (2015) and Liu et al. (2023), derived from numerical solutions, can be adopted to estimate horizontal coefficients of consolidation (ch) through the piezoball dissipation measurements. The dissipations tests were performed at depths of 4, 6, 8, and 10 m and were conducted up to at least about 70% of dissipation of the excess pressure generated during the penetration, except for the test at a depth of 4m, done at 85%. Results were directly compared with piezocone, and the estimated values for the consolidation coefficient were similar for all methodologies applied, both at the face and equator positions.
