Abstract

Shear wave velocity is an important input parameter for dynamic ground analysis. Standard penetration test blow counts, static cone penetration tip resistance and shear wave velocity (V_S) obtained by the cross-hole technique have been collected from a large number of projects in Greece over the last 10 years and regression analysis used to develop empirical relationships. The paper discusses the factors which influence the derived equations, in particular the relevance of the soil type.
