Foundation Engineering

  1. Dilatancy correction is required when a strata is
    1. Cohesive and saturated and also had N/Value of SPT > 15
    2. Saturated silt/fine sand and N value of SPT < 10 after the overburden correction
    3. Saturated silt/fine sand and N value of SPT > 15 after the overburden correction
    4. Coarse sand under dry condition and N value of SPT < 10 after the overburden correction
Correct Option: C

ng = 15 +
1
(N0 - 15)
2

N0 - SPT value after over burden pressure correction is applied.
