Plate Bearing Testing

The plate bearing test carried out in the UK. This test is used to measure settlement of soil, earthworks, ground, pile mats, crane pads and other construction and geotechnical materials under known stresses. Useful for foundation design, road design and checking suitability of materials under load. The test can also be used to measure and calculate an equivalent CBR value.

have searched many videos on plate load test and yours is the best thanks for the explanation

[@ankitnegi6192]

Bayakuya Kucki nice...

[@jacksonzheng4288]

I like your gear, clean and nice. Much better than the ones in my company

[@abdulkarimgharibyar5963]

Great video sir, Thanks so much

[@faizzack]

Thanks for the informative video

[@nazminizarimi2030]

thanks for the video.

[@fmhora]

WOULD YOU SHOW US THE APPOINTMENTS PLEASE? ALSO THE VALUES AND CBR EQUIVALENCE. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@aamirabdulsalam]

you explained it well sir, can you further explain the deformation against loading graph and design.how much loading is required?

[@labeiffage1564]

nice video

[@youwilllaugh3136]

vary well done video,

[@ahmedkamla2109]

Thanks for sharing 😊

[@emmalee2520]

nice video and knowledgeable.

[@DEofficial88]

Really nice

THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO

[@jamesliu327]

Nice and useful video thx

[@TryThinkingAboutIt]

Hi, interesting video. The vehicle you use is sprung. So how can you be sure what the load is?

[@engr.rashidiqbal237]

there are many-weighing balance to measure the weight of the vehicle and its material together....but out point it to check the load from the loading gauge which is shown in the video and monitor at 5, 10,15, so on up to 100kN.

[@rahulkallammanavar5052]

Usefull Thank you sir ,

[@christopherwallace8775]

Amazing

[@hkesh28]

Genius Man!!

[@karthikraja1361]

Thanks for the video. May i know what should be the load in truck to check 100 KN bearing capacity ??

[@Hixtra]

I suggest you'd need something weight at least 14 tons

[@basitriyaz914]

Lovely

[@dosunum6118]

tq

[@arshadsiddiqui180]

what is the length of the reference beam

[@hekmatyaraslamthuhaq2644]

hi, nice video. I want to ask, how you convert (k) from PLT ro CBR Value?

[@Hixtra]

CBR (%)= 6.1 × 10^-8 × (k762)^1.733 where k762 is the Modulus of Subgrade Reaction, defined as the applied pressure under the loading platen divided by the displacement (normally 1.25mm) with a plate of 762mm (30 inch) diameter. The Modulus of Subgrade Reaction for other plate sizes can be determined using an appropriate conversion factor

[@herogalaxyhuang8939]

Suppose you use a 400mm plate, the measured k is 40, the conversion factor is about 0.6. Does that mean the K762 is 40*0.6=24.

How long the test will be? One hour?
