The DCPT penatration resistance on each type of soil has a specific characteristic. The aim of this researchis to experimentally study of DCPT penetration resistance (qc and Rf) of sand for several water content (w)and dry density( d ) variation, and comparison with the same parameter of silt. The sample of sand takenfrom Palu-1’s bridge upstream. Test result showed that the variation of “w†have no significant influencefor qc and Rf. The higher thed the higher the qc and Rf. The specific relation of qc, Rf , w and d of sandin comparison with silt by using charts are veryclear and usefull to interpret the soil type
