Based on a real-life example, the report presents the methodology and the process of adapting in situ measurements from static CPTu probing for an application in a design process, using direct methods of driven pile capacity estimation. The report discusses two approaches. One of them is based on a real-life original CPTu measurement involving preliminary soil assessment while the other one is based on the initial averaging of the measurement values qc and fs. The paper provides methods of averaging cone resistanc...
