Development of an Empirical Correlation for Predicting Shear Wave Velocity of Christchurch Soils from Cone Penetration Test Data
Abstract Following the companion study of McGann et al. [1], seismic piezocone (SCPTu) data compiled from sites in Christchurch, New Zealand area are used with multiple linear regression to develop a Christchurch-specific empirical correlation for use in predicting soil shear wave velocities, Vs, from cone…
