(2006a)</em><em>Lukas (1986)</em><em>Lukas (1995)</em></p><p><strong>Method Summary<br></strong>Quick response piezometers should be used to accurately capture the large increases in porewater pressure during deep dynamic compaction. They should also be monitored after compaction is completed to determine when the porewater pressures have completely dissipated.</p><p><strong>Accuracy and Precision<br></strong>Piezometers are reasonably accurate and precise.</p><p><strong>Adequacy of Coverage<br></strong>Piezometers can be placed so that porewater pressures throughout the soil mass can be estimated.</p><p><strong>Implementation Requirements<br></strong>Piezometers are relatively easy to install and monitor.</p><p><strong>General Comments<br></strong>Piezometers can be used in any deep dynamic compaction program.</p></p>
