Plate Load Bearing Test Apparatus
Product Code : EL-STLE-10375
Quick Answer: The Plate Load Bearing Test Apparatus is a field-testing instrument used to estimate the bearing capacity of a soil under field loading conditions for a specific loading plate and depth of embedment, in accordance with ASTM D1194. It is also used for load tests of soil and flexible pavement components for use in evaluation and design of airport and highway pavements. It is supplied as either a 500 kN capacity set with 600 mm and 760 mm dia. loading plates or a 200 kN capacity Plate Loading Test Set with 300 mm and 450 mm dia. loading plates, both complete with a hydraulic hand pump, pressure transducer, digital readout unit, datum bar, and digital dial gauges.
This test method is used to estimate the bearing capacity of a soil under field loading conditions for a specific loading plate and depth of embedment (ASTM D1194). It is also used for load tests of soil and flexible pavement components for use in evaluation and design of airport and highway pavements.
Set consists of a 500 kN capacity piston assembly and hydraulic hand pump, pressure transducer, LPI battery operated digital readout unit, 2.4 m long datum bar, 3 pcs. 25 mm travel x 0.01 mm digital dial gauges with dial supports, 600 mm and 760 mm dia. loading plates.
