Plate Bearing Test Equipment

Made in: Italy

Plate Bearing Test Equipment for determining the bearing capacity and deformation characteristics of soil and foundation materials in field and geotechnical testing applications.

Product Overview

STANDARDS: ASTM D1194, D1195, D1196 | BS 1377:9 | CNR N° 92 and 146 | UNE 7391 | Comparable to DIN 18134

Plate Bearing Test Equipment is designed to evaluate the bearing capacity, load-settlement relationship and deformation characteristics of soil under a loaded plate. The test is widely used in geotechnical engineering to assess soil performance for foundations, roads, pavements and other construction projects.

The equipment applies a controlled load to a rigid bearing plate and measures the resulting settlement, providing valuable information for evaluating the load-bearing behavior of soil and subgrade materials.

This test is performed for the determination of the bearing capacity of a soil in-situ on road constructions, foundations, road subgrades, airport and highway pavements.
A wide range of plate bearing test equipment is available, together with many accessories according to the different Standards and specific end-user needs.
