The Cone Penetration Test is based on pushing an instrumented cone into the ground at a constant speed, with continuous measurement of the cone end resistance, the friction along the sleeve of the cone, and the pore water pressure.
The Neptune cpt systems use a coiled rod system. This system limits the depth below ground level that can be reached but it is easier to deploy form a variety of vessels. Neptune 3000 system weighs 3 tonnes and has a 10 metre rod. The system uses 2 and 5 cm2 cones.
