Source text - English Many current methods of measuring soil
modulus or stiffness in the field require large
forces to produce a measurable deflection. The
GeoGauge uses technology borrowed from the
military to measure very small deflections,
allowing much smaller loads. The GeoGauge
does not measure the deflection resulting from
the GeoGauge weight. Rather, the GeoGauge
vibrates, producing small changes in force that
produce small deflections. The soil deflects an
amount d, which is proportional to the outside
radius of the ring foot (R), the Young¡¯s modulus
(E), the shear modulus (G) and Poisson¡¯s ratio (u) of the soil.1 The stiffness is the ratio of the
force to displacement: K=P/d. The GeoGauge
produces soil stress and strain levels common
for pavement, bedding and foundation
applications (27.58 kPa or ~ 4 psi).
Translation - Italian Molti degli attuali metodi di misurazione sul campo del modulo o della rigidezza del suolo richiedono grandi sforzi per produrre una deflessione misurabile. Il Geocalibro utilizza una tecnologia precedentemente impiegata in ambito militare per misurare deflessioni minime, con pesi molto inferiori. Il Geocalibro non misura la deflessione che si ricava dal peso dello strumento. Il Geocalibro, piuttosto, vibra e produce delle piccole forze cicliche sulla superficie del terreno. Misura poi accuratamente le piccolissime deflessioni che ne risultano. Il suolo devia di un ¦Ä proporzionale al raggio esterno del piede dell¡¯anello R, al modulo di Young (E), al modulo di elasticit¨¤ (G) e al coefficiente di Poisson (¦Ô) del suolo. La rigidezza ¨¨ il rapporto tra la forza e lo spostamento: K = P/ ¦Ä. Il Geocalibro produce una tensione del suolo e deformazioni analoghe per manto stradale, stratificazioni e fondamenta (192 Pa o ~ 4 psi).
