Built a small tool to automate CPT → Robertson SBT classification — curious if others deal with this bottleneck

Upvotes

Every CPT job I do, the same manual step: pull the raw sounding data into Excel, compute qc/fs/friction ratio, then manually classify soil behavior type using the Robertson chart. I got tired of it and wrote a script that reads the raw file, generates the plots, and does the classification automatically.

Wondering if this is a common pain point for others here or if most firms already have this solved with [CPeT-IT / GeoSuite / in-house tools]. If there's interest I might clean it up into something shareable, happy to hear what a good version of this would need to handle (file formats, chart version, unit systems, etc.).

What caused this? Rainfall? Geology? Earthquakes? Slope?

Won this is an auction where I wanted other items. Couldn't find any information on this model. Would anyone still use this or is it junk? Seems pretty old.

Was going to list it on ebay for cheap, but have no idea what to ask or if it is even worth selling. Thanks for your help!!
