Soils - Standard Penetration Test (SPT) and Sampling with a Split-Barrel Sampler

National Standard of Canada CAN/BNQ 2501-140 specifies a test method used to determine the penetration index N in vertical drilling and to obtain a disturbed soil sample. The Standard Penetration Test is used during geotechnical investigations for the purpose of determining the nature and compaction of the soil.
