To develop equation, twenty one samples were collected and The SPT-N values were between 6 and 54. Also, the cohesion values varied between 5 and 265 kPa. The correlation analysis was conducted for cohesion and number of blows in SPT (SPT-N). The proposed equation was validated using 5 independent values and the estimated values of cohesion based on SPT-N fall in the range of of actual values. Furthermore, real applications practice include bearing capacity and elastic settlement were used to validate the proposed equation using multiple way for calculation by previous equation and PLAXIS Model and they found that the proposed equation is applicable for using in geotechnical application.
