Abstract
This paper is the culmination of a three-phase research effort to estimate the preconsolidation pressure of in situ soils using a conventional Menard pressuremeter modified for acoustic emission monitoring. The first two phases involved determination of the feasibility of the AE technique using controlled laboratory tests on both granular and cohesive soils that were prestressed to known p (sub c) values. These results were previously reported and have shown that the AE data manifested itself as a bilinear response curve that "broke" at pressures approximately + or -10% of the known p (sub c) of the soil.--Modified journal abstract.
