Standard Penetration Test (SPT)

Standard Penetration Test (SPT) is an important physical testing method in Bangladesh, which is used to determine the density and strength of soil and rock. This test is especially important for construction projects, roads, bridges and other infrastructure projects, as it provides important information about the physical properties of the soil. The SPT test is usually carried out by a holding paddle or pit, which penetrates the soil and measures the resistance of the soil at a certain depth. This test is widely used in Bangladesh, as it is a simple and effective way to obtain information about the soil for the construction of ground structures.
