At this S-CPT obtained, value of the cone penetration resistance (qc) namely resistance value to the cone penetration movement whose magnitude is equal to the vertical force acting on the cone divided by the area of the cone tip. Shear resistance (fs) or shear resistance (fs) is the value of resistance to penetration movement due to shear whose magnitude is equal to the vertical force acting on the shear plane divided by the surface area of the shear blanket; this resistance consists of the amount of shear and the adhesion force. Soil classification in civil engineering is a system of regulating several different types of soil but having similar properties into groups and subgroups based on their use. The S-CPT cannot be expected to provide accurate predictions of soil type based on physical characteristics, such as, grain size distribution but provide a guide to the mechanical characteristics (strength, stiffness, compressibility) of the soil, or the soil behavior type (SBT). Based on the results of research and analysis, it is concluded that ; type of soil at the study site is dominated by clay soil, which is interspersed with silt soil and a small layer of sandy soil with non-uniform grain. Type of soil is influenced by t local characteristic of the investigation which is in the river border area and is located close to Mount Merapi which is an active volcano. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
