In an automatic inclinometer chain of 16 sensors distributed in 30 meters, how do you know you have installed in the correct elevation?
What is the industry standard for installation and checking?
Does anyone have experience in drilling for the installation of an inclinometer and piezometer in a reclaimed site?
I am curious about how do you put in the porous sand and bentonite separately, especially when the soil is collapsing.

Thank...
We also had problems with the base coarse material.
MDD: 2.27 gm/cc
OMC: 8.30%
Specific Gravity = 2.98
CAN YOU RECOMMEND A CUT OFF TOO?
NOTE: STANDARD PROCTOR TEST was used to get the MDD and OMC.
We are testing for compaction lahar (volcanic ash) using field density test.
MDD = 1.67 gm/cc
OMC = 13.77%
We had results giving 148% compaction!
Resulting to a in-situ dry density of 2.46gm/cc
(AS HARD AS CONCRETE!)
Obviously, something is wrong already.
CAN YOU PLEASE ADVISE A MAXIMUM...
