Resumo: An alternative method for quality control of earthworks in mining tailing dams is described in this article. It is composed by a penetrometer, known by the acronym DCP (Dynamic Cone Penetrometer), and is used primarily in road construction (quality assessment of pavement layers). With this apparatus, strength measurement of superficial layers of natural and compacted soils can be performed, including mine sand tailings, in a fast and efficient manner. The instrument was successfully used in the construction control of an iron ore mining tailings staged dam in the Quadrilatero Ferrifero, in Minas Gerais State, and the results showed distinctly effective densification of the embankment compacted layers, but with a sort of irregularity in their spatial distribution. In addition, field control using the traditional core-cutter method was also performed for comparison between both techniques.
