Impaktorverfahren
Impaktorverfahren refers to a group of geotechnical investigation methods used to determine the dynamic properties of soil and rock layers. These methods are based on the principle of generating a controlled impact and measuring the resulting wave propagation through the ground. By analyzing the travel time and attenuation of these seismic waves, engineers can infer characteristics such as shear wave velocity, Young's modulus, and Poisson's ratio.
Typically, an impaktorverfahren involves a source that creates a mechanical impulse, such as a falling weight
Impaktorverfahren is particularly useful for site characterization in infrastructure projects like bridges, buildings, and tunnels. It
