placement for pressuremeter tests Explanation: "Placement" is but a general term since I'm not sure what mise en fiche involves in the case of pressuremeter tests. For piles, it is "pitching", in principle, i.e. raising the piles to the vertical position, possibly with a little preparatory driving, in readiness for driving to their full depth. However, I have also seen the word used for the actual driving of piles to their full depth, possibly when the toe of the pile is fiché into bedrock. I've also seen it said of drilling rig placement/positioning. In all these cases it amounts to placement/positioning, but there may well be a more specific term. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2009-12-14 21:34:08 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Adding to the confusion is the fact that we don't know if by sondages pressiométriques they mean the actual pressuremeter testing or the boreholes (sondages) for carrying out said testing, so it's possible it means "placement of drilling rigs for (drilling of) pressuremeter boreholes" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2009-12-14 21:47:43 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Here we have sondage pressiométrique meaning "borehole in which pressuremeter tests are carried out" (in a list of different types of boreholes (drilled in different ways) : Botte Sondages dispose d'un parc matériel permettant la réalisation des investigations suivantes : - sondages carottés continus, permettant des coupes géologiques précises et le prélèvement d'échantillons pour essais en laboratoire, - SONDAGES PRESSIOMÉTRIQUES, - forages destructifs avec enregistrement des paramètres de forage, - sondages à la tarière, pour réalisation d'essais pressiométriques et prélèvement d'échantillons de sols pour diagnostic pollution http://www.botte-sondages.fr/parc.html Le SONDAGE PRESSIOMÉTRIQUE EST RÉALISÉ À LA TARIÈRE OU EN DESTRUCTIF (Rotation d'un taillant avec injection d'eau ou d'air. ... monsite.orange.fr/d2.geo/page1.html And here we have sondage pressiométrique meaning "pressuremeter test" : Un SONDAGE PRESSIOMÉTRIQUE CONSISTE EN UN OU PLUSIEURS ESSAIS dont l'interprétation permet de calculer les caractéristiques ou paramètres pressiométriques du sol. http://www.solem.ch/Tunnel/didacticiel/reconnaissances/recon... Sondage pressiométrique. Ce SONDAGE CONSISTE EN LA RÉALISATION D'UN OU PLUSIEURS ESSAIS aux profondeurs déterminées par le bureau d'étude. ... www.gaufor.net/service-geotechnique.php And here we have it meaning both : Réaliser un SONDAGE PRESSIOMÉTRIQUE (FORAGE + ESSAI) selon la norme NF94 110. ... www.ginger-formation.fr/stage_F512_5_2009.html Of course sondage has many meanings: Borehole - Sondage. Pénétration verticale dans la couverture pédologique avec enlèvement de matériau (sol, roche) à l'aide d'un outil creux, le plus souvent en forme ... 138.102.82.2 › cours But also "investigation": as a "sounding" is an investigation of the depth of water, so sondage - not necessarily performed by means of boreholes, but also by means of seismic prospecting, geomagnetic prospecting, etc. – investigates the subsoil. |
