Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) Soil Testing Services
At RaiseRite, Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) soil testing is offered as both a standalone service and a key component of our comprehensive soil stabilization projects.
As an independent service, DCP testing provides fast, reliable field data on in-place soil strength and compaction — helping municipalities, DOT agencies, engineers, and contractors evaluate subgrade conditions before construction or repair.
When integrated into a full stabilization plan, DCP testing establishes baseline soil conditions, guides treatment depth and strategy, and verifies measurable soil strength improvements after ground improvement is complete.
Why RaiseRite Uses DCP Testing
- Rapid, on-site evaluation of soil strength
- Identifies unstable or compressible soil layers
- Supports data-driven stabilization decisions
- Cost-effective alternative to extensive laboratory testing
By performing DCP testing in the field, RaiseRite ensures soil stabilization strategies are based on real conditions — not assumptions.

Backed by Geotechnical Engineering Expertise
When projects require deeper technical analysis, RaiseRite partners with HMI’s geotechnical engineer to interpret DCP data and provide professional guidance. This collaboration helps determine:
- Depth and extent of weak soils
- Appropriate ground improvement methods
- Project-specific stabilization recommendations
This added layer of engineering support provides confidence for municipalities, DOT agencies, contractors, and commercial clients.
Ideal Applications
RaiseRite’s DCP soil testing services are especially valuable for:
- Roadway and infrastructure projects
- Municipal and DOT work
- Commercial and industrial developments
- Sites experiencing settlement or subgrade failure
By combining in-field DCP testing with professional geotechnical analysis from HMI, RaiseRite ensures that every soil stabilization solution is data-driven, engineered, and verifiably sound.
