Abstract
The dilatometer test (DMT) has been shown very useful in providing a number of geotechnical parameters, in different types of soils. The test is regularly carried out every 0.20 m, i.e., it is a discontinuous test. Therefore, its capability of detecting variations in the geotechnical profile is conditioned by the tests interval. The Medusa DMT, however, is able to obtain continuous measurements of the A-pressure reading, thus providing a much better picture of the soil stratigraphy. Medusa DMT tests have been carried out at Sarapuí II very soft clay deposit around Guanabara Bay, in Rio de Janeiro, and a detailed soil profile was obtained. A comparison was made with piezocone tests. The stratigraphy of the deposit obtained by both tests was almost the same.
