About the lectures:
* Icone Vane
The Icone Vane is part of A.P. van den Berg's modular Icone measurement system, which is based on fully digital data transfer. With the Icone Vane, accurate in-situ fin testing is ensured by several features. These features and the operation of the Icone Vane will be explained in this lecture.
* Interpretation of fin tests
This lecture will show how the measurement results obtained from in-situ fin tests can be dealt with in calculation models in an effective and responsible way.
* Innovative geotechnical laboratory techniques for practical use
The (im)possibilities of CRS and other tests will be discussed on the basis of examples from the laboratory perspective and from the consultant's perspective. In addition, attention will be paid to the latest state of affairs regarding the new SBRCURnet Geotechnical Laboratory Guideline.
* CUR research sampling on peat
Cor Zwanenburg will update us on the results of the CUR research in which different drilling techniques on very weak peat were tested and compared.
