Plate Load Test

Preparing a level surface for the placement of the steel plate to ensure accurate test results.

A plate load test is a geotechnical method used to determine the bearing capacity and settlement characteristics of soil and rock.

This test simulates the conditions a foundation will experience, providing crucial data on how the ground will behave under the weight of a structure. The results inform foundation design, ensuring stability and safety for construction projects.

we provide specialized plate load testing services to assess the bearing capacity and settlement characteristics of soil and rock at construction sites. This essential test helps in designing foundations by providing accurate data on how the ground will behave under load. Our experienced team utilizes advanced techniques and equipment to deliver reliable and precise results, ensuring the safety and stability of your construction projects.

A plate load test involves applying a vertical load to a steel plate placed on the ground surface or at the bottom of an excavation to simulate the conditions of a foundation. The test measures the settlement of the plate under various load increments, providing valuable data on the bearing capacity and compressibility of the soil or rock. This information is crucial for designing foundations that can safely support the intended loads of a structure.
