Plate Bearing Test Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : JA-ST-9820
The Plate Bearing Test Apparatus (SKU JA-ST-9820) is used for the plate bearing test, a standard field method for finding the bearing capacity of soil. A steel plate is loaded in gradual increments and the settlement at each step is recorded, which makes the test a small-scale model of a foundation. The ultimate bearing capacity is taken as the load at which settlement starts to increase rapidly.

Frequently asked questions
How is the ultimate bearing capacity found from the test?
It is taken as the load at which the settlement of the plate begins to increase at a rapid rate.
Why is the plate bearing test used to check other methods?
It is essentially a model test of a foundation, so its load-deformation results are the reference against which other bearing capacity methods are compared and calibrated.
