ARSCOP: a French national project to continue with the development of the pressuremeter


The National Project ARSCOP aims to continue with the development of the pressuremeter. The objective is to provide a better testing procedure for ground investigation to obtain reliable soil and rock properties to be used in calculation methods for better geotechnical design. This paper describes the works carried out in this project by 46 industrial, academic, and project owner partners during the period 2015- 2024.
