The Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) began testing the dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) in 1991, finding the DCP an effective tool in the assessment of subsurface pavement conditions and strength. Researchers conducted extensive DCP testing and research on both the Minnesota Road Research Project (Mn/ROAD) and several pilot project sites in an effort to understand it useful applications in Minnesota.
