A comparison of two methods of determining the stiffness of track-bed materials (dynamic penetration and dynamic plate load) comparing the PANDA and the Light Weight Deflectometer.
Results of compressive strength and resilient modulus measured in situ using a Variable Energy Dynamic Penetrometer (VEDP) – PANDA DCP, Light Weight Deflectometer – Portable Impulse (LWD-PI), and Plate Load Test (PLT) and laboratory Unconfined Compressive Strength...
The South Australian Department for Transport, Energy and Infrastructure (DTEI) commissioned Parsons Brinckerhoff (PB) to undertake geotechnical and environmental investigations over 104 km of rail network to provide information on track and drainage conditions and...
Trial to test the Bomag Vario 213 roller’s ability to suitably consolidate bottom ballast for a railway environment, and additionally, to compare methods of measuring the achieved stiffness, including the Light Drop Weight Tester and Plate Bearing Test.
