English term or phrase: constrained modulus
For each location, the specific depth related soil parameters were assessed and the geotechnical design profiles with characteristic design parameters are shown in Appendix C.
The constrained modulus was assessed based on correlations from PCPT measurements for cohesive and cohesionless soils (Lunne et al., 1997). For the peat layers, the constrained modulus was derived based on the correlation between water content and compression ratio (Lambe and Whitman, 1969 as quoted in Mitchel 2005). The compression ratio facilitates the assessment of the constrained modulus, valid for small load increments.
