Worldwide, geotechnical engineers frequently use the Uniaxial compression test for soils and rocks as a basis for determining the strength of the materials, despite the fact that test results are subject to a wide range of uncertainties (drilling technique, care during transport and stockage, sample preparation, and sample representativity of the soil or rock layer). The process of geophysical site research uses Refraction Seismic Survey and Passive Tomography to determine the shear and compression seismic wave velocities for various rock and soil layers under the surface. The study examines the correlation between the outcomes of the Uniaxial Compression Tests and the shear seismic wave velocity measured at a 400 ha location in the Atacama Desert (Chile), which was intended to host 84 km of linear solar panels. A robust survey of the axial compression value was determined at a vast site spanning 400 hectares by integrating Uniaxial compression tests, Brazilian test, Shear, and Compression seismic wave velocity.
