ABSTRACT:
A probe arrangement and set of tubes for a penetrometer. The probe is formed from a sleeve and a point which comprises a central part and a peripheral part which are connected by a cotter pin. The set of tubes comprises a central rod, which is attached to the central part of the point, and two concentric tubes around the rod. The arrangement may be used for making four independent measurements. The peripheral part of the point is connected to the sleeve in such manner that on holding the outer tube and applying a driving force to the central rod, the cotter pin shears and the central part of the point travels downwards so that hard ground may be studied.
