A Cone Penterometer Testing (CPT) is a direct Push system used to measure lithology based on soil penetration resistance.
Sensors in the tip of the cone of the DP rod measure tip resistance and side-wall friction, transmitting electrical signals to digital processing equipment on the ground surface.
