Executive Summary | As a provisional monitoring device for geo-environmental aspect,a new-type of geo-environmental cone penetrometer is designed in this research . It consists of electrical conductivity(EC)sensor,pH sensor,water absorber and conventional CPT equipment. EC is continuously measured with depth. The value of pH is measured by absorbing water into the device. And using the same mechanism of absorbing water,it is also possible to pump up the water around the cone to the ground level. |
