A cone penetrometer consists of a proving ring attached by rod to a steel cone. Test is performed by pushing the assembly into the ground and recording the dial gauge reading. The reading is then converted into a pressure called the cone index. Cone indices can be correlated to California bearing ratio test results. 4, record 1, English, - cone%20index
