Hello all,
I am a college senior that is in the last semester of civil engineering program. I am working on an assignment that requires calculating the N values for a given boring log. I know that you ignore the first 6 inches and then use the next two sets of data of the next foot to get the N value, but how do you begin the N table? Do I record the N value at 6" or at 1 foot? I am starting from ground level and test goes to 102 ft. I am assuming that I would take the value for 6" to 18" and enter it for a depth of 6". Then my next depth would be 3' and and would enter the data at 2', using the blow counts from 2' to 3', continuing to the end. If anyone can help clarify this that would be great. Thank you very much.
