Vertek CPT and Marchetti DMT

VERTEK CPT AND MARCHETTI DMT™


A partnership built to last.

Vertek CPT is now the sole Marchetti DMT™ distributor for the United States and Canada! We can provide you with everything from wear items to complete DMT and SDMT systems, including our new Vertek to Marchetti adaptors allowing you to utilize your existing Vertek VTK series CPT cable and rods with a Marchetti Medusa DMT or SDMT blade.

If you are looking to upgrade your current DMT equipment to the latest technology or need parts, reach out to the Vertek sales team! With a growing Marchetti DMT inventory at our Randolph Vermont location, contact us today with your needs and we can ship the same day in most cases!

For a complete list of replacement items, refer to the Marchetti website and reach out to the Vertek sales team for a quote.

Medusa DMT and SDMT


Perform dilatometer test autonomously with the Medusa DMT probe to generate and measure the pressure directly at depth. With the fluid is liquid (incompressible) and the pressure regulation is electronically controlled your DMT readings are very repeatable. High-resolution dissipation tests and horizontal pressure measurements during penetration are possible. The seismic dilatometer is an add-on module that can be combined with the dilatometer or with the CPT for measuring the shear wave velocity Vs (SDMT) and compression wave velocity Vp (SPDMT).

SDMT:

True-interval test configuration allows the repeatability of the V S measurements is very high, approximately 1 %, i.e. a few m/s.

The Vs values are calculated automatically and displayed in real time, at a cost and time considerably lower than Downhole or Crosshole.

SDMT provides the small strain modulus Go and the working strain modulus MDMT, i.e. two points of the G-γ The availability of two points is helpful while selecting the design G-γ curve. (Amoroso et al. 2014).

Monolithic and Prolube DMT and SDMT


A Flat Dilatometer test requires pushing a blade into the soil with any common field machine. A circular steel membrane located on one side of the blade is expanded horizontally against the soil at each test depth. Pressure readings are recorded at specific moments during the membrane expansion. The blade then is pushed to the next test depth. Typical depth intervals is 0.20 m.
